Re: Did you go shooting today (Pic thread)
Thanks - that's great food for thought and allows me some perspective to reconsider!
I certainly agree with the performing in front of a crowd piece. That was something a while back that really helped me on my training journey. I enjoy adding all of the stressors I can to safe training situations.F*S=k

Re: Did you go shooting today (Pic thread)
Yes and no. If one has gotten the training to do it correctly and knows the difference, then yes. But some don't and they feel that what they do in the matches is "training".
Some things done in matches are very poor "tactically" (for lack of a better word), hanging out from cover to get better angles to shoot the paper cardboard targets that are planted. Rushing to "unload and show clear" at the end of a stage, instead of topping off and scanning for possible further threats, some other things too.
I have shot numerous different gun games over the years (IPSC, IDPA, NRA Action Shooting, Steel Matches, PIN matches, 3-gun matches, PPC matches, Bullseye matches, and some others....) so I do think that shooting matches has benefits, but one must know what is beneficial and what is not, when doing so.Tomorrow's battle is won during today's practice.

Re: Did you go shooting today (Pic thread)
I did a hunt rifle day today.
Tikka T3x. Rem700 7mm Mag, Rem 760 pump and a Rem Nylon 66.
https://flic.kr/p/2pFWfPb
Leupold had a 30% off deal for a custom scope dial for the VX5HD.
Anyhow the info I needed included the velocity of the Hammer Hunter 160s I run thru the Tikka .300WM.
3255 was the average of the 4 shots. The cold bore fouling shot was a bit off the group but the other 3 were good ( well good for as good as I can see).
The 7mm didn't do well at 200 but the pump..06 did good.
I had not shot the Nylon66 in many years and rather than call for a cease fire to set a 50 yard target fir my 22, I shot the same 100 yd target I used for the .06.
I.was surprised.
I couldn't see tha damn front sight clearly so I had a blurry rear, a blurry front and a blurry target. I could kinda make out all 3 and was very surprised I hit the target 9 of 10 shots
It was a good day to be out on the sunny but nipply range.Opinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.
