Not bad Sir!!

 

That wind is what separates the shooters from the gear....

 

This afternoon I shot a 50yd target outdoors at our local rifle range. The MTR I picked up in January has had all 2650 rounds of its life shot indoors. The range faces North & there was a 13-17 mph NW wind. SK Rifle Match is my preferred load. Here are the five 5 shot groups. .336 to 1.025 inch groups. I tip my hat to the outdoor ARA shooters for fighting the wind.

Nice!

 

Hmm, funny we seem to have an abundance of that thing called wind here in South Dakota too! Gotta go early in the morning to avoid it.

I do like the Walleye fishing in ND a bit better, hard to beat Devil’s Lake…

 

We had our first benchrest silhouette match here in north central Pa on saturday. Lots of shooters kicking themselves. Even most of the really good shooters were down several targets. My grandson in particular was crushed. This is only his 2nd year shooting anything. I told him the only way to learn to shoot in the wind is to shoot in the wind.

 

very nice, wind can ruin a lot of groups for sure,

 

Nice to see another ND shooter, we have quite a bit of wind up here!

 

I have a CZ 452 Varmint in 17 MACH2 that I bought in 2004. I took it to the range and put 10 shots into 3/4" at 100 yds. The wind picked up and my next group was 2.5". Then the wind quit and the group was under 1". When the wind blows, my groups suck.

 

Aaw come on you guys, haven't you ever heard that old saying "the wind is your friend"? I've never figured that one out!

 

If I could shoot that good in the wind I would be tickled!!
