Target Success Stories
Matt Kline
"Berger Bullets helped me set my World Records!”
Matt Kline is a competitive shooter from Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania. In Sept 2010, Matt broke 3 world records at the Original Pennsylvania 1000 yard BenchRest Club in Williamsport, PA. He got the group records with a 2.815” (ten shots at 1,000 yards) which scored a 100-4X. He also broke the 6 match Heavy Gun score Agg record with a 99.0 and the 10 Match Heavy Gun score Agg record with a 96.2. All three records are impressive, but breaking the 3” mark at 1,000 yards with 10 shots is something many thought would never happen.
Matt shoots a Mark King rifle chambered in 300 WSM with a .338 neck. Mark built the rifle using a stock of his own design, a BAT action and a Broughton barrel. Matt used a NightForce 8X32 BR scope for his optics. He used Norma brass, Federal primers, Hodgden H4350 powder and Berger 210 gr VLD bullets.
