The Match Director will decide how many shooters need to be signed up to move forward with each event.  Unless the event is formally cancelled (as announced on this and other posting sites), assume it is going forward. 

IF you want to shoot multiple rifles, you need to complete a registration for each one. If you expect to be shooting with us more than once, we suggest you do yourself a favor and build a text file in your word processor and then just copy and paste. NOTE: IF you seriously think you will score 5 in 10 or better, please DO take the time to enter ALL the info requested in the Build Sheet section – will save us e-mailing you to get missing info and hasten getting results posted on the URSA site (News and Stats pages) and the non-Cal Guns sites. Thanks.

June 24, 2026 – Recap of the URSA NorCal June ‘26 event (by RD, Lynn Dragoman; build info and notes from Oscar)

Well, we had a good turnout on Father’s Day, despite 3 shooters turning up sick, myself included.

Match 1 was shot in good conditions and Eric and CalShipBuilder both qualified. The match was won outright at 2127 by CalShipBuilder, so we didn’t have to move out to the 2600 yards gong.

For Match 2 we had James show up with two of his buddies, Tim and Louie, shooting a newly built 416 Barrett heavy gun. All three of them were shooting the same gun, sporting a heavily modified McMillan HBR stock.

Qualifying saw CalShipBuilder, Aron, James, Louie, and Tim all moving on to the match but Louie and Tim dropped out due to a shortage of ammo.  CalShipBuilder and James each had 4 or more hits at 2147 yards so we moved out to 2600 yards.  CalShipBuilder was all around the gong with his 33XC. When the dust settled James had won his first match ever with the newly-built 416 Barrett, and scored two (2) achievement points in the process.  Video of James’ 2600 yd hits here (at 7:31 and 9:42) – thanks, Doug, for the camera work.

Congratulations James on a very nicely shot match and for your generosity in sharing your rifle and some very expensive ammunition. James’ ammunition cost was well north of $1000 for that match Win (and all the other shooters using up his ammo)!

Off now for three months, in deference to the various hunting seasons in the area, back on October 18^th.  Enjoy your Summer!

Match 1 Winner, and Match 2 Runner-Up, CalShipBuilder, was shooting 300 gr. Berger hybrid OTMs out of his Carlsbad-built 33XC with Barnard PL action, Brux 31” barrel, McMillan A5 stock, and Tangent Theta 5-25×56 scope on a 30 MOA Barnard base with Area 419 rings.

Match 1 Runner-Up, Eric, was shooting 230 gr Hornady A-Tips out of his McGowen 30” 300 PRC pre-fit barrel with Terminus Kratos action and 40 MOA base, Foundation Genesis 2 stock, and Nightforce 7-35×56 ATACR F1 scope in Hawkins Precision heavy tactical one-piece rings.

Match 2 Winner, James, was shooting 550 gr Cutting Edge MTACs out of his Louis Tamagni-built .416 Barrett with McMillan TAC-50 action, McGowen 36” barrel, heavily-modified McMillan HBR stock (we think), and Nightforce 12-42×56 30mm benchrest scope and ERATAC adjustable base and rings with up to 70 MOA.
