Not an official entry (my printer was having issues. Lol) but was hella fun to get behind my 22s after a few months of sitting in the safe.  My groups were horrible today but was fun to shoot this target.

I have 4 targets to post. I won't be able to put them up until this weekend. I shot .223 at 100 yds with 2 different loads and my modified 10/22 with SK Standard + and some Eley Match at 50 yds. Had a good 10-12mph wind all day. I would tried the rimmies out to 100 if the wind wasn't blowing.

Yeah she does like the good stuff. I shot the best group she ever shot on Sunday with that Eley Match. I have a couple boxes of Eley Tenex I want to try next.

I did have a box of the 69gr Nosler Match and they shot very well in my bolt gun. The problem I have is I am invested in a fairly large quantity of SMK's which I need to shoot up. I bought a box of Nosler 55gr at a gun show a few years back and shot them thru my AR. Without trying to work up a load for them they grouped really well.

I have not decided what I am going to shoot this Saturday. Those Tenex rounds are calling my name. Maybe more flies?

Inspector, Did you get a chance to shoot the Eley Tenex? I took the Savage Mako out for a run but forgot the bolt at home.  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:. What can I say? I'm getting old. Tried it again witth the 10/22. My printer is out of color ink but doens't print the wings even in black/white.

I'll never forget the day I went out to the range (from Kapolei) with 3 guns and the wrong ammo for all 3 guns. I had nothing to shoot. LOL

I did shoot the Tenex today. I noted that the wind was gusting pretty good today and my groups were not as good as the Eley Match. Funny thing is I shot better groups today with the Eley Match in the wind as with the Tenex. But the surprise ammo today was the Aguila Sub Sonic ammo I brought with me. Take away the occasional flyer and the Aguila shot very well. I have a fly target for the Tenex and Aguila. I will post them tomorrow.

How weird. It doesn't print the wings.
So you gotta buy the color ink.
Does the ink cost as much as the printer?

My Kestrel was registering 3-13mph today, Mine usually liked the SK Match and Norma Match but not today. I shot the cheaper CCI best. It hated the Eley Sport. Oh well always a learning experience.

Took the .308 out to fireform brass.  Didn't do all that well, guess my mind was somewhere else.  Just couldn't pull it together.

Here's the best shot of the day.  This was the only one that went almost exactly where I was aiming. :(

The vertical speration on the Tenex looks pretty good. Maybe should give it another go on a day with more consistent winds? Either way nice shooting!!

Sadly I only had a few hours range time in December and I forgot to bring the bug targets.

But it's ok cuz I can just shoot at the bugs in my house anytime.
