Team Vihtavuori’s Phillips Crowned King of 2 Miles
05.07.2019Team Vihtavuori member, Paul Phillips, was recently crowned King of 2 Miles at the NRA Whittington Center in Raton, MN.
King of 2 Miles is an Extreme Long Range (ELR) Rifle competition that challenges competitors to engage steel targets at various distances out to 3,525 yards. Phillips and his Team Global Precision Group members all shoot the 416 Barrett cartridge and load Vihtavuori 20N29 powder exclusively for their ELR platforms.
“Vihtavuori powder has provided the most consistent and lowest single digit SD’s of any powder we’ve tested. This is a huge advantage when attempting to impact steel plates beyond 1,500 yards. We must have very consistent ammunition,” stated Phillips, “Vihtavuori Powders played a huge role in our team member’s success of finishing 1st, 3rd and 4th.”
Phillips will be competing next at the 2019 NRA ELR National Championships at Camp Atterbury in Edinburgh, IN.
