Shooting Pictures

The March night match was awesome and had some great stages.

80ish yard plate rack to start the trenches stage

Know your limits target had to be engaged from outside and inside the shoothouse

Did a little shooting this weekend. Wasn't my primary purpose but since I was at our ranges, I took some guns.

Both Saturday and Sunday I did the same drill. 10 shot group at 100 yards and then 10 shots at 1000 yards. I didn't take any pics of the 100 yard groups though.

Saturday I had my 6.5 CM. Pretty good 100 yard group although my zero seemed a bit high. At 1000 I hit 2 out of 10. Not great but it was a bit breezy and I didn't ever miss by much. I guessed on both elevation and windage (didn't have my Kestrel with me) and missed on the right edge by 3-4" on my first shot. Not bad considering I was holding 8 MOA of windage.

Sunday I had my (pictured) 308 AR with a 16" barrel and 3-15 PST Gen II. 100 yard group was not great. 5-6 of them were pretty good but 4-5 fliers. Honestly, I haven't quite found the right load for this gun. I was shooting 168 gr AMAX's today. At 1000 I hit 2 out of 10. Almost identical conditions to yesterday. Same wind, same temp. The catch here was I realized I had no data on this load in this gun. No Kestrel again and no muzzle velocity to even plug in to Ballistic AE. Took a wild guess at 40 MOA of elevation and held 8 MOA of wind for the first shot. Way low but wind was good. Ended up being at 48.5 MOA and wind ranged from 5-9 MOA.

Again, I'm not thrilled that I was only 2 out of 10 both days but it was fun giving it a whirl. And for anyone that is interested, I was at 27.5 MOA of elevation with the 6.5 CM.

Fastest $10 I ever spent. Worth it.

Is this using the echo trigger?

Nope, just good old fashioned bump fire.

I took my new 97B out to the range last weekend and shot some groups a little past the 7 yard line. There were a few fliers as I got a feel for the nuances of the gun, but overall, I was super impressed. The thing's a total tack driver, never had groupings that consistent my first time shooting something, although there may or may not be a particularly embarrassing flyer hiding under that bottle cap:

Ringing steel....waiting on my can.

Had the 10 year old out shooting her 10/22 with a scope for the first time coming off a plain red dot, and she did great. After a very quick lesson about proper sight picture (ie "Papa I got this") she was hitting bullseye's and shooting the steel in very rapid succession. The scope is a Leupold VX-R, and she was tickled pink when I turned on the red dot after 100 rounds. I wanted her to manage with just the cross hairs first.

Awesome! Congrats to her!

Was curious about that portable shooting seat/bench ya got there... Did you make that, or is it commercially available? How much?

 

[arrowshooter]

It's a commercial number. That one is from Xtreme, but It is available under different brands as well. The top comes off the legs and it swivels 360, perfect for the rats.

Roger that, with taught being the operative here. This young lady has being learning about gun safety since she was 3 and it has all stuck. Notice that she shoots with her finger on one side of the safety and her thumb is on the other side. It is absolutely automatic that the safety goes on for any reason, and off when she is on target.

Great form! I especially like the "both thumbs forward" grip, driving the gun, as it were.

Bravo Zulu, 2W4E!




You see what I did there...??
