Good Luck. I'm done until next Monday weather permitting. I shot 10-25Yd targets today and the first one was the best. First two shots in the same hole then pulled the third. Just got worse as I continued. Most were 27s with a couple of 26s.

Hiked into my shooting range yesterday; still a foot of snow on the range itself and more on the road up to it (on the way out I found two trucks stuck on the road - apparently driven by optimists).

Did get a few rounds off with the new Ruger Mark III target pistol, but no targets coming from up here in the mountains for a while (unless I start posting airgun targets).

Went shooting with Surf-n-shoot today and this will probably be the last match for my trusty Mossberg M44 and my untrustworthy Savage TR
25 Yards my ole Mossberg shined as usual with a perfect score even though I accidentially shot 5 shots insted of 3. As you can see it didnt make a difference as all shots hit in the white. My ole Mossberg is being retired to the comfort of my gun safe only to be taken out, oiled, and occasional outtings so the boys in my son's Boy Scout troop can qualify for their marksmanship badge.

Dont worry though Izzy and SnS I have a CMP Kimber on order so Im sure I can compete with the both of you.

Next up is my Savage. Now my Savage is within MOA for a .22 but it isnt up to my demanding requirements so I am replacing it with a CZ varmint I am picking up this week. Unfortunately the scope I ordered ened up being out of stock so I will have to wait till next month to try it out. Here is my 50 yard shots.

Score 37

Finally my 100 yard
I was doing pretty good considering the wind today till my son tapped me on the shoulder on my last shot. I love my son but man I wanted to shake him when that happened

Score 46
Well thats it I think for this month
My Mossberg was great as usual but I will no longer be frustrated with my scoped Savage. Its done and soon will be for sale to the highest bidder.

Nice shootin'!
I hope I can get out before the end of the month. I just did a little free float clean up of my CZ American stock which was a tad tight on the muzzle end, and replaced the original trigger spring with an Ace Hardware #144 spring. Can't wait to see how it works now!

[usmcchet9296]

Yeah DHW
I got a DIP trigger kit, picatinny rail, tps rings, and a SS16X scope for it
I still have to send the bolt out to get a new knob and order a McM stock for it.
its going to be my new tactical trainer till CMP releases the last of their 40x's

Nice!!! give us some info on the rifle, ammo and such.

[ChaparralCommando]

I shot a 26 on the 25yd but I'm not going to bother posting a photo since it's not a leader.

thanks Ray

You are correct! If I could only read. Thanks.

[surfNshoot]

Here are my targets for the month. Took 3 times out shooting to get it but I'm happy. I've included a pic of my new Iron site gun of choice. The Kimber 82g. Got it sighted in today. I just need to practice with it a bit and its gonna be awesome.



100 yard



50 Yard



And the 25 Yard

[Izzy43]

SurfNshoot, very, very nice shooting. Guess all we can hope for this month is a tie after those targets. Competition is getting tighter every month. Nice rifle, did you shoot all three ranges with the Kimber and irons. 100 yd target is really great as well as the 25. What ammo did you use. Congrats again.

[usmcchet9296]

Damn you SnS cleared 100
well some time this week Im going to take out my CZ and see if I can match you
damned nice Kimber
mine is in the order line at CMP and who knows when Ill get it
apparently any time I order from them its backlogged
Izzy the 25 yard target SnS shot was with his Mossberg last week
I was there to see it
from what he told me all he did with his Kimber was zero it and get used to the single shot function

Izzy,

No I used my Savage TR for the 50 and 100 yard and my mossberg for the for the 25. The deal for me to get that kind of group is I must never lose my site picture so I keep it on the exact same spot on th target every time. Since the new rifle is a single shot I was having to pick my cheek up off the rifle, pull a bullet out of box and then sit back down on the rifle. Once I've practiced doing it without looking I'm gonna do real well with this kimber though. I think next month I may put up an Iron site competition to 50 and 100 yards. what do yout think? Oh and I used SK standard plus for all those targets.
