I've shot both the 123 Sceenar and the 123 A-Max at 1000 yards, I really couldn't tell much difference. Guys in the pits said they were both still supersonic so at least I know they are above 1,150 fps or so. Both loads would hold the 9 ring with most in the ten if it was relatively calm.
I shoot at Butner a few times a year but across the course from a sling haven't shot the long range match there. I just shot the Eastern Creedmoor along with my son in May and we both did well.
Did you run into my friend John Friguglietti, he would have been shooting a Tubb 2K in 6XC? I know he shot the match you were in. It sounds like you had fun and that is after all why we do this.

Hi Bob,
I may have bumped into him, but I'm such a newbie to the group that I don't know many of the guys yet. I saw a guy with a Tubb 2K but didn't meet him. That may have been him.
One of he guys pointed out that of the 3 other guys in the relays on my lane, one was sponsored by Berger Bullets, another was the club champ, and the third guy had beat them on occasion. Talk about intimidating!
But they were great guys and I learned a lot.
Like you say, having fun is what it's all about. Thanks for the input on the AMax vs the 123 Scenar.
RR
