October 30, 2021 – The Tack Driver Showdown, an all-comers rifle match, is unique. This multi-discipline match will reveal which rifle types are the most accurate, at least to 300 meters. The Tack Driver Showdown II will take place in Orangeburg, South Carolina, on Saturday, November 6th and 7, 2021. The organizers welcome all types of rifles (except railguns) and allow them to compete at 300m for score and group honors. This weekend’s event should see close to 100 competitors.

You will see six PPC LV/HV rifles on the firing line, along with 30 BR score and rigs, 17-lb 600 yard and 1000-yard benchrest guns as well as F-TR rifles and F-Open rifles. There may even be an AR15 or two. The event’s purpose is to settle endless arguments about which guns are the most accurate. The 6PPC is the king of 100/200 group competition, while the 30BR rules 100/200 score. 6mmBRs, 6BR Improveds, and 6BR Rules 600-yard Benchrest are dominant. The.284 Win is F-Open’s leading cartridge, while various 6mms, 6.5mms, and PRS matches win.6mms. It will be interesting for us to see which bullet weights and chamberings “rule the roost at 300 meters. Jim Cline, Match Director, plans to post match results on AccurateShooter.com Forum. This Forum Thread contains more information. Tack Driver II targets are located at 300m (328 yards). This is not “mid-range” according to benchrest standards, but it should still be close enough to allow for the higher BCs of bullets shot by F Class and 600/1000-yard benchrest devices.
