Sac Valley 3x600 Match

[OldShooter32]

Dusted off the old rifle and went out to see if I could still "cut center" with it. It has been a while,and it showed.
Suffice to say I had more fun than set any records.
Real nice group of guys who REALLY know how to "read wind" and shoot in the changing conditions we faced today. I plan on coming back (I have no shame) and learning more.


And whoever developed the "F-Class target" is a sadist! It's like trying to hit half of a 3"x5" card at a third of a mile!

But it was a lot of fun.

You gotta tell us what you used and how you did.

I'm still gluing my shattered ego together...
I shot my M1a using my own handloads (41.5g IMR4895 under a 175 BTHP in GI Match cases.) On the military target the last time I shot this course I shot around 579-17x if I recall correctly. Today? I shot a 501-3x on the F target. Considering the size difference between the military and the F target, I don't feel horrible, but I plan on doing better next time!
