300 or more is the goal!!!

[islandermyk]

Last weekend I scored 260 in the Pueblo P-Dog match.... extremely happy!!! It was my first match of the year, I had "Long leg" out of service for a whole month... went with some old DOPE off this ballistic program and things actually went well besides the first two shots I made that were oopssy worthy/deserved to get kicked in the balls kind'a sh*t
The last time I was out there I only scored/hit like 7 out of 40. Here's the thread I started on that last year. https://www.ar-15.co/threads/116403-...st-me-or/page5.
Now the goal is to hit that 300 mark... yep, I suck... but Gawd damn I'm having a lot of fun

Here's are some pics:

The flag was damn near holding on for dear life

You're still parked more than 30' from the road? Nice shooting and beat that goal.

That's one busy reticle.

Good shooting. Gotta love a personal best!

If you can shoot a 260 you can shoot a 300. Just being able to do the right thing over and over is the hard part.

Looking forward to seeing you break 300 soon.

What is the longest shot you have to take. I dont have my 308 build finished and would like to get out with my AR. Are distances close enough to be somewhat competitive with a 556 ar? It looks like everyone has bolt guns.

Lots of guys shoot AR's. I typically shoot one in the AM match and a bolt gun in the afternoon. Short targets are 220ish, long out to 425. The long ones are doable with an AR, though it's easier when the wind isn't howling.

For giggles, I'm going to be shooting the next one's morning match with an AR in 300 BLK. We'll see how it goes. I typically shoot the morning with the gas gun (normally my 556) and afternoon with the bolt gun.

SON OF A B*TCH!!!

I know I got a 290 today... I slipped up on the 2nd string... and on the last string 9th target.. I fumbled that one

Consistency is the name of the game. I was swimming all over my rear bag, and I kept over compensating for the wind trying to read it through the mirage... and that (the mirage) was playing with my eyes down range.

Do you guys use the mirage as a reference of wind speeds or just an idea of where the wind is blowing... or both?

Anyways.... Good job to XC700116!!! Hitting the farthest target with your 300 black out!!!

Hahahahaha, total luck, especially when you look at the whole of my match with the black out 6 of 40. But it was still fun. There's something about being able to see your bullet fly into or at least right by the target that's just fun.


Good to see you again man, it was definitely a fun time. 330 w/ the 260 didn't exactly have me thrilled but it wasn't horrible either.
