  • (ELR) Shooting by Bryan Litz, Applied Ballistics
    Introduction to Extreme Long Range (ELR) Shooting By Bryan Litz, Applied Ballistics Introduction Accuracy and precision minded rifle shooters are continuously pushing the limits of long range rifle shooting. Those at the pinnacle of the sport, who routinely score first round hits on steel targets beyond a mile are calling their pursuit Extreme Long Range Shooting – ELR. This article explores the fascinating world of ELR shooting including the special equipment, knowledge and skills required to succeed. The Applied Ballistics ELR Team at the 2016 King of 2 Mile event. Left to right: Bryan Litz, Paul Philips, Mitch Fitzpatrick and Kelly McMillan. The rifle is Mitch’s self built 375 Lethal Magnum that he used to win the event. What is ELR? As stated in the introduction, ELR stands for Extreme Long Range, but what is that, in numbers? ELR may mean something different for a .308 Winchester shooter as compared to a .50 BMG shooter. Where is the threshold between normal long range and Extreme Long Range generally considered to be? The fact is that range becomes extremely long at different distances depending on the performance of the rifle you’re shooting. One way of accounting for this is to consider ELR shooting to be the distance at which your bullets slow to transonic speed. All high performance centerfire bullets start out somewhere around Mach 2 or 3, which is 2 or 3 times the speed of sound. As the bullets fly downrange the loose speed due to aerodynamic drag. The bullets trajectory remains somewhat predictable up until the part when the bullet slows to around Mach ABDOC136 Copyright © 2017 by Applied Ballistics, LLC.

  • Long-Range Fifty Caliber Rifles: Should They Be More Strictly Regulated?
    Order Code RS22151 May 20, 2005 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Long-Range Fifty Caliber Rifles: Should They Be More Strictly Regulated? William J. Krouse Domestic Social Policy Division Summary In the 109th Congress, legislation has been introduced to more strictly regulate certain .50 caliber rifles, some of which have been adopted by the U.S. military as sniper rifles. These rifles are chambered to fire a relatively large round that was originally designed for the Browning Machine Gun (BMG). Gun control advocates have argued that these firearms have little sporting, hunting, or recreational purpose. They maintain that these rifles could be used to shoot down aircraft, rupture pressurized chemical tanks, or penetrate armored personnel carriers. Gun control opponents counter that these rifles are expensive, cumbersome and rarely, if ever, used in crime. Furthermore, they maintain that these rifles were first developed for long-range marksmanship competitions and, then adopted by the military as sniper rifles. Related amendments may be offered during Senate-consideration of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (S. 397).1 The issue for Congress is whether to regulate these firearms more stringently based on their destructive potential in a post-9/11 environment. And if regulation is pursued, what measures seem most effective and appropriate. This report will be updated as needed. Legislative Proposals in the 109th Congress In the 109th Congress, two proposals have been introduced to more strictly regulate certain long-range .50 caliber rifles. The Fifty Caliber Sniper Weapons Regulation Act of 2005 (S. 935), introduced by Senator Dianne Feinstein, would amend the National Firearms Act (NFA)2 to regulate “.50 caliber sniper weapons” in the same fashion as short-barreled shotguns and silencers, by levying taxes on the manufacture and transfer of such firearms and by requiring owner and firearm registration.

  • Setting up for the Long Range Hunting Shot
    SETTING UP FOR THE LONG RANGE HUNTING SHOT First off lets start off let’s start by saying that long range hunting shots are like snowflakes, a few maybe similar but no two are really alike. While each shot is unique the preparation for each shot is mostly the same. For the sake of this article let us assume that you have a rifle and scope combination that shoots very well and you have a developed and confirmed drop chart for your home practice shooting range. Now we will go afield and run through the steps for making a solid first round hit on your hunt. First things first, we must locate said animal and I cannot stress the use of quality optics enough. When the target animal is located the very first thing I do is get my rifle setup in a good shooting position toward it. I use a Harris bipod with a PodLoc and a low profile scope level to set up quickly and relatively level. I can use almost anything for a rear bag, fanny pack, a real bag, a rock or just about anything that will allow a solid position, my hand is my last option. In the picture below you will see a MTM ammo box for a rear bag. Once I have a good shooting position I start to lock in the shot. The very first thing I want to know is the exact distance as this will affect how I work the rest of the shot out. I use a lazer range finder anytime it is possible to do so.

  • We Live at the Bottom of the Hill by the Proposed Site on Tahuya Blacksmith Road
    To the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, There should be public areas that are open for target shooting on state lands. Tahuya State Forest would be a good place for that. A planned area would be a great addition to that area and be of great benefit to public safety as well. _________________________ We live at the bottom of the hill by the proposed site on Tahuya Blacksmith Road. We did not even know that this site was being considered until I read an article on line. We did receive a flyer in our post office box 5 days before the meeting about the public meeting to discuss this issue. We had an out of town commitment and could not attend the meeting. The flyer said nothing about the actual sites proposed. We are extremely opposed to this site. We have lived here for 26 years. We are concerned about safety, the value of our home, the noise, the hours when shooting can take place, and the traffic. Tahuya Blacksmith Road and Belfair Tahuya Road are 2 lane roads. Tahuya Blacksmith has a 25 mph speed limit with curves and limited visibility. We purchased our 5 acres with a large house and horse barn to enjoy the quiet country setting. Behind our property is the Tahuya State Forest. We liked that idea because we thought no one could build behind us. We never envisioned that the state land at the top of the hill would become a shooting range. We sacrificed many conveniences living out here and it has been worth it.

  • Reading the Wind
    Reading the wind Bryan Litz has an excellent chapter on reading wind in his book Applied Ballistics for Long Range shooting. In there he talks about wind at the rifle vs. wind at the target and which is better to read. All things being equal on a wide open range both are the same and will affect the bullet the same. What does affect the flight path is the wind at a point in the trajectory that the bullet experiences a different surroundings. The example he uses is at Lodi. That range is tree lined on both sides accept for a cut at the 400yd line. So since there is a different surrounding there that area is a good place to watch at that range. The other thing about ranges that are tree lined on both sides like Lodi (above), Oak Ridge (below), and Miami Valley R+P in Batavia, Ohio (below) is that while they generally are protected from wind laterally. When wind blows up and down the range you will get swirling. This is very common at Lodi where the 23 wind flags can be pointed in many different directions. The swirling can come from either the geographic terrain (i.e. hills) or from the fact that the flags themselves are being interfered with from swirls by the trees. Camp Atterbury Range 6 (along with Ranges 3 and 5) is different. It is wide open however from about 500yds on in you do have the cemetery to the west and a hedge row to the east. Forming a tree lined alley Because of this alley affect you will see that it does slow the speed of the wind down when out of the east.
