3rd Annual 2017 - My Black Rifle shoots sub-MOA groups all day long challenge!

[mmattockx]

And that's a swing and a miss...

Got out today. Pretty blustery, with a swirling, gusty cross wind running around 15-20km/h. It felt OK from the firing line, but was way worse downrange. Oh well, hopefully I learned something besides the fact that this is going to be harder than expected.

No pics of the rifle, since I didn't get there. I'm responsible for the numpty shot outside the border on #1 but even without it included the group is still 1.25". So, first time out I got 2 of 5 to go. Next time I am going to try for more consistency on my setup and maybe the weather will cooperate a bit as well.

Anybody else having better luck than me?

Out of spec junk...

Who would bother with out of spec junk? Three 0.75", or under...in your face Mr. Outofspecjunk.

MOVE ME UP!

Colt HBAR/Spikes, Bushnell Trophy Xtreme 2.5-15X50.
75gr Hornady HPBT, Winchester Brass, 23.0gr RL15.

73gr Hornady ELD and 23.0gr of RL15 looks promising.
