What sort of camera have you goy and what setting are you using? Looks like flash on a glossy black surface! :roll:

the first lot is resubmitted from last month tyhe second is this months

The groups for this month shot a bit low as can be seen both months were shot with the No 5 enfield both shot 25mtrs unsupported last month was with some light home loads this months were with privi partisan 180 grain fmj. I can only hope that the groups can get better :(

Well I cocked it up again.....

Post by Woftam » Mon Oct 20, 2008 4:36 am

just when I was smugly congratulating myself on being a clever lad and putting the group sizes on the targets (AS REQUESTED SIR, YES SIR) I noticed I'd cocked up on the number of targets for Sept. For reasons I don't quite follow I've shot the Sept ones as one target (which they are) and the rest as two targets.

So Adam, maaaaaaaaaate, will that be a problem ?

Sept

Oct

Nov

I think the fact of not having access to a centerfire range and being only able to shoot my rimfires has helped a bit with my shooting. My current best is a .587" group at 50m off the bench with the No 8, not world beating but I'm happy with it.

Having a completely enclosed range helps as well. In fact the only complaint with the range I became acquainted with on Friday - I didn't realise the pistol club (with whom the range shares a common wall) were shooting on Friday until I was halfway down range to change targets when I heard rapid pistol fire coming from behind me :shock: Ah well, I wasn't the only one spinning and ducking :oops:

BTW Duncan I was wondering if when you wrote this -
Seems like a good incentive to shoot Adam!
Did you mean

1) it was a good incentive to do some shooting or

2) something more sinister ?

Mind you if he ever has the gall to suggests Barry Manilow is an aussie again I'll go with option 2 myself.

Not a problem Graeme so long as I get group sizes I don't care any more.

Nice rifles those No8s, your the only one shooting .22"at present.

My other laptop went CRASH where my pictures are stored and I will have to wait until my brother can pull them from the hard drive in November when he gets here .... Sorry.

I might have to send the targets to Adam personally by snail mail
