Kevin Gorospe - Mark 7 Shooting Team
Kevin Gorospe -
Mark 7 Reloading Shooting Team
Background
I worked part-time at a shooting range in Manassas, Virginia back in 2017 named Elite Shooting Sports. The owner and operator was a Grand Master level competitive shooter for the past 30 years named Greg Wodack. He trained the staff on shooting basics to ensure a higher level of understanding to better serve the clients. Greg saw potential and began developing my shooting abilities and taught me how to compete. He was very generous and believed in me. He became my first sponsor and encouraged me to keep pursuing this shooting career. Without him I would not have become a professional competitive shooter.
What You Reload On and Why?
I load on 2 separate APEX 10 Presses with autodrives. I load both 38 Super Comp and 9mm Minor. I came from a Dillon Precision Super 1050 with a AmmoBot Autodrive and there are so many advantages that sold me on the APEX 10 Press. The Super 1050 didn’t allow me to separate the flaring and powder drop stations and there wasn’t a station for a powder check as I had a bullet feeder. The APEX 10’s added stations gives me the ability to have a higher degree of consistency, safety and ease.
