STATS

Name: Bryan Sikes

Hometown: Maple Grove, MN

Shooting Since: I have been shooting my whole life in some way, shape or form.

Shoot: Precision Rifle Series

Favorite Shooting Memory: Anytime all or most of my team, Team GAP/Bushnell Tactical is at a PRS match together.

How did you get into competing? As a military sniper, I’ve always looked for ways to hone and test my shooting skills, competing in the PRS was a natural way of accomplishing that.

How do you prepare for a competition? A solid session of shooting at our private GAP range, having already figured a good load recipe, then shooting relaxed and rolling confidently into the match without feeling rushed

What’s your longest shot? 1830M with a .308

What is your best piece of reloading advice? When perfecting your method of reloading, never change more than 1 variable at a time. This makes it easy to then compare outcomes. As an example, I got tired of cleaning primer pockets. I then removed that step from my reloading process and found that it did not change the accuracy or consistency of my hand loaded ammunition.

“Don’t listen to everyone, lol. Everyone has their own way of accomplishing the goal of precision loaded ammo. That’s the problem, just find one or 2 people or sources that reload and learn their method until you are proficient enough to begin molding your own style.”
