Eugene: did you enjoy the match today? I forgot you were shooting it until I saw the results, otherwise I’d have introduced myself.
Hey, it was a really nice event. I did really enjoy it for sure! Though wasn't too impressed with my results 35 out of 38. However, the results are expected, considering a new rifle and a scope... it will take time to get used to the new equipment and to get comfortable with holds on the new scope.
These competitions are actually a logical next step after regular visits to a range with bench sessions... after you get to make a one hole from 50yd and get decent group at 100yd, you get tired of just bench shooting.. and these events are fun next step for sure!
I'll make sure to work on my shooting skills beyond just a bench. lots to work on for me.

You must me new here. You certainly not need to solicit criticism here.
I am indeed new here
The feedback I got in this thread is priceless.
People are extremely helpful and I appreciate every reply to this topic. I learned a lot and don't mind a healthy criticizm. How otherwise one would grow and develop skills?
Eugene, that looks like a good assortment. Hope you have a couple of each in case one (or more) are winners. Out here in NB there are NO stores with anything like that selection, and shipping a couple pounds from ON costs $30-40 on top of ammo costs.
Good luck with those.
Good luck with those.
Yeah, I got 2 packs of each to have enough to understand each ammo.
And I feel your pain for the ammo shipping.
Also, as for the shipping cost, I ordered some norma tac22 from tenda, and I believe they have a flat delivery rate of $35. Which if you buy a decent amount can be a good deal.
One person from this forum suggested that I hold off from buying a large amount of ammo and keep the money for an event.. a fare, where some vendors offer great discounts for ammo... so that's my long term plan
You made an excellent showing at the 100/200 Metre Match on Sunday
The switching wind obviously caused a couple of issues.
I pulled your targets for a closer look. There were two two sevens on one target that was scored as a 95 but was a 93.
In essence that little lady beat you by one but the there were experienced shooters she beat too.
The wind at 200 metres was even more severe. Without time to make adjustments, windage corrections are the quick fix and lots of guestimations!
Holding on an adjacent target to make shots is an indicator but my corrections were 4" left to 7" right.

It was a fun event. Thanks for organizing
Great opportunity to shoot 200m. The wind was brutal and inconsistent.So, now that I switched to the CZ457 MTR, I am testing various ammo to see what the rifle likes.
I've had two shooting sessions and here is the MOA table for my shooting. My fundamentals is something I am focusing on...
I've got a few good candidates to stock up on.
And yeah, the weather was great today! I had a nice day on the range
