This will be a fun way to break in my new AR once the barrel gets back from Noveske... 

Also, do we print this out on standard 8.5x11 paper?

Yes sir, 8.5X11 portrait.

Hehehe... you guys are in my territory now!

Tom, it does say irons; you sure your eyes can take it...? 

- Alex

Might as well put Tom at the first place spot, and we'll all compete for second on down...

Aigh!  Insult!!!  You, sir, I will see in the lists! 

(at least it's only 50 yards!)

Anyone get a chance to shoot?  Rifle, Pistol? 
I am gonna try to get out this weekend for this.

Heavies we should meet up! Should go Sunday =p (I don't think I have anything going on!)

If everything is good with work and the 'Boss' at home I'll be there on Sunday morning.    I have some loads to test for my 6br, and I will also shoot the match at 50 yards.

pm me your # or give me a call, I can come out on sunday;  what are you shooting? If it's a rifle, what caliber? I don't have a rifle yet, so I could pick up some ammo though!

Anyone shoot this yet? I'm having problems uploading my target.

Teichi,

Very nice shooting!!      

I shot this match, but I haven't scanned it to upload. Hehe

Teichi what problems were you having? Was it that your image was too big?

It took me about 7 tries to upload the jpg. The page would freeze up.

nice shooting!

These were shot last weekend. I used a vintage m1 carbine off a front rest consisting of a rolled up rifle bag, PMC .30 carbine ammo, at 50yards. 

First target I shot slow, one shot at a time, spotting each shot. It took a few to get windage and elevation into the center. The sights are not very adjustable so I had to figue some holdoff, but after that I got a nice cluster in the ten ring. However, I miss counted my shots so this target is no good and can not be counted. The worst part is the last shot, the one I didn't need to take, was the worst of them all!  haha



This one is the next one I shot. I did not spot this one at all for the ten rounds.




So, I'll have a 79. Unless I can get out and try again! 

Anyone else try this match out??  Submit before the end of the month!

Nice work, Heavies!  That grouping in the first target is pretty impressive.

Thanks Tom.
I was really suprized myself.  The carbine is from 1944, the stock is cracked a little, the sights are 1 moa windage, and marked for 100, 200, 250, and 300 yards.  Took a little tweaking to get it where I wanted.

Dude, getting hits like that from a WWII battle rifle it phenomenal!  Whether or not you win the competition, that's minute-of-bad-guy accuracy in both targets.  THIS is why I love those old weapons... they do what they were built to do!
