    Went to the range today for a practice run at the competition scored a 29-0x. I was using a new ammo until I start reloading Hornady match 168 bthp. They group really well even though they are 30 bucks a box. From my prior ammo I was zeroed to it was hitting about an inch low and a inch left. I will adjust my zero next time I go to the range because I think I will stick with this ammo until I start loading.

    HERE IS MY EXCUSE LOL I WAS NOT ZEROED TO THIS AMMO HAHA

    Hoping to try it tomorrow, but there is basically a creek between me and my 100 yard range right now.

    I'm expecting to see some practice targets posted this evening as I know certain members are at the range today.

    Got a new printer. Android prints them a little small. About 1/8 inch or so. My ipad prints them pretty good though. Hopefully get to the range tuesday or wednesday. We'll see.

    Good luck I went to the range yesterday and got sidetracked with the new ar and forgot to do an official target for submission. I have practiced twice I will try to get to the range again this weekend.

    The road to the rifle range was too muddy when I went out wednesday. Be a week and a half before I can get out again most likely. I do have targets printed though.

    I was going to try yesterday. Went to two different ranges - both closed. Might be a couple more weeks before another chance.

    39 by my count. Can edit the post to show it so it doesn't generate a lot of discussion there.



    Nice shooting. Wanted to do one yesterday while the wind was calm but ended up at the movies. Thought I might get a chance today but the wind is back.

    weather was perfect hardly a breeze. I decided to put down about 90 rounds of ar to warm myself up before switching over to the 308. Used a regular zero target to check windage and elevation about 5 warm up shots with 308 then got to work.

    Hoping to get to the rifle range Tuesday. Want to shoot that new S&W too.
    Nice shooting by the way. Don't expect that good from me.

    Migrating from the scoring thread...

    Orbit: Are you counting the two sighter targets as actual sighters? If so I see 9, 9, 9, 7, 10 for a total of 44.

    If you're counting the sighter bulls as scoring bulls then you've got two shots too many.

    Not counting the sighters. Since we are using a 22 target for 30 cal scoring the 9 ring is the bull and the others are +1.

    I've been wanting to try it, just haven't had a chance to get out and shoot, except on the really windy days.
