Good Idea!
I'd love to compete with a peeped Marlin 30-30 but I'll have to pick a bolt I guess....:)
Stripper clips would improve your score for sure but I don't think you can cycle the bolt much quicker then that.
 
Please note the rule change

Any of you girly men going to challenge this one?
It means having to go outside and shoot in winter conditions...

Glad I found this! I was planning on taking my new 91/30 out for the first time today and now I have a reason. Not that I need one. Hoping I can get into the pit where I shoot through all the snow.
 
Well, I tried. I only scored 8 points. 3 hits in 188 seconds. I guess I should have shot a target and figured out the rifle shoots to the right about 5 inches and prefers a dead center hold, instead of a 6 oclock hold. Had my group been centered, I would have scored much better. But all that is just talk. I'll try again, either later this week or sometime next week and I'll bring enough ammo to try more than once. :(


Edit: I got the picture up.

Not to shabby there at all with all positions on that one target. Had you zeroed you would have all scoring?? What rifle/sights/ammo?

I forgot about this, and that group looks kind of like my 100 m prone yesterday with a 10.5 AR and PlaguePull sights! I blamed the cold hands, too many rifles, too much talking, etc etc, I have a whole pocket book full of them you know.......
 
Bone stock 91/30, fresh from the grease, dated 1938. Stock sights and some cheap non corrosive from can tire for $11 per box of 20. I think most would have scored if I'd zeroed first. I pulled one of my kneeling shots really bad. You can see it bottom right on the cardboard, way down there.
 
Bone stock at 100m? I'm really surprised your group is that low. That is excellent shooting mister. The grouping is fab. Just need to drift that front post to the right about 1-2mm and rear the rear to 150 and you're in the big time points.
 
I was using a low hold, bottom of the circle on the top of the post. I'll hold dead center next time. As for drifting the sight, how does one do that? I've always been a scope guy.
