MAY Targets Posted (Interrim)
« on: May 16, 2024, 07:04:37 PM »
I hope more are coming, 16 shooting days left.

I'm  not  H/C or P/C or even a particularly  good shot but I have a hell of a good time!

Hey Nessmuk,
I emailed my Sgt York to you but I don’t see it posted.

Hey Kevin, is that shot on the edge of the target, your first shot out of a clean barrel ? If so, you might want to consider shooting a fouling shot before shooting for score. Been there and done that.

No I just can't shoot.
  I shot the Sgt York first, after about twelve sighting shots. Various charges looking for that sweet spot. 
 Settled on .530 with 60-65 gr 3f goex that day.
 Going out again today  :pray: if the wind will lay down.
 50-60 + yesterday.
 Going to shoot some .535 balls

 You know what they say. If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. Oh, and that part about can't shoot, I don't believe it for a minute. That shot was a hangfire.
