I'm back after family vacations, weekend get-a-ways and prior commitments. I joined the club where we shot the competition and went out Saturday to test the ammo I had on hand, I left 2 Eley boxes on the bench that I wanted to try so I get to go try it again
. I was there before we could start shooting 8:30 to set up targets and start getting ready, probably started shooting before 9:00 and stopped around 1:30 or 2:00. I tried 27 different rounds 7 CCIs, 5 S*Ks, 1 Eley, 1 Wolf, 1 Norma, 7 Aquilla some have Eley Prime on the side, 1 American Eagle, 3 Remington and 1 Winchester, this is some I've picked up and some that are vintage. What I found is my gun didn't like all but 3, CCI SV target, Norma TAC, and Eley Target. I shot each at 50yrds using a 1/2" target and only tried the 3 that would stay inside the dot and at 100yrds they all shot about the same. I can get the CCI locally for $3.50 (limit 4), Norma runs around $4.00 and Eley is around $7.00 on the web. I will return and set up some 1" targets at 100yrds and play again then try the 200yrd berm to see if any fall apart after 100.
They had props set up for practicing the upcoming NRL match this weekend and the PRS match the next so I got to watch how they moved and setup on the targets, Maybe I can get enough ammo and my dope to practice with them next time their out.
I noticed inside a covered bench centerfire rifles are no fun to sit next to. I saw some nice rigs, RimX, Vudo, Tikka, and another Bergara and all offered to let me shoot them but I declined knowing I would only want to get another.
