Day at the Range

[skwerl]

Capt. America challenge.

1710 GRS. , Eley Team 80/100 with 1 star

Middle of the road according to Range guy , highest I've seen is 86/100.

The bottom row of 4 targets were obsqured by a strand of Barbed Wire ( really )
therefore had to count sighter targets ( 4 , 4 ) and double up on 3rd. row ( 3 , 4 )

Very nice Shooting, Skwerl! I have nothing to show for my efforts at the range today other than a bunch of empty casings and the photo below of today's lineup. The focus today was on zeroing the new (to me) FN FS2000 first with the Arken 1-8x LPVO (for accuracy) and then the Vortex Sparc 5x Prism Optic with MRDS on Top. All together, it took a while and a bit of ammo to get things all properly aligned. I was pleased with the FS2000's accuracy which measured 1.75" for 5-round groups at 100m using PMC 62 gr XTAC ammo. Not too shabby for a Tactical Tuna Gun....
The rest of the lineup (Left to Right) = Tikka T3X 6.5 CM in a KRG Whiskey Gen 6 Chassis, Lockhart Raven 5.56mm, Bushmaster ACR 5.56mm, and CZ 600 Trail in .300 Blk:

How does the point system work? Is it whatever ring the majority of the bullet is in?

 

[FatCatsDad]

the a very nice picture of a fine collection of quality guns.

That FN is just mesmerizing to look at.

I'd love to be able to shoot one , even if just once, one day.

Can you share some information about this mono pod please ?

 

[Bartok5]

Thank-you for the kind words! If you ever get go Edmonton you would be welcome to try out whatever you like..

What you are looking at is actually a Bipod, it is jùst that the Right Leg is in line with the Rifle's Barrel. The Bipod is an Atlas brand.

Whatever ring the hole is touching, no matter how little. If it breaks the line, it scores for the higher ring. - dan

Yep , rite on Dan.

I think there is a bonus for a star (5) shot has to be completely
surounded by blue , there is 1 lucky shot 2nd row.

Geez Mark , you have quite the arsenal .

I actually have not shot a Black Rifle , that makes me a shooter
of a certain vintage I guess .
They are increadible looking guns , I only shoot Rimfire now .

What distance is those Captian America targets, shot at?

I found this, about 3 mins in explains it. To score a 5 the shot has to be completely in the blue,not partially. The break the line and get the higher score doesn't apply to the 5.

Link to the challenge and target. I might give it a go.
