Five shooters got to knock down silhouette targets under perfect weather conditions.
We would have finished before the wind went from calm to over 15 MPH if Dave hadn’t taken so long to pick up his brass.
So the shoot-off for first place took place with a strong wind from six o’clock. First shot; miss. Second shot; miss. Third shot; miss. At this point one has to wonder if the winner will be determined by who runs out of ammo first! Suddenly, it occurred to Jim that the elevation was set to 16 clicks instead of 10 so–Fourth shot; winner!
Dave made history by shooting four (!) different vintage military rifles, one for each stage! (And scored 20 hits!) So who amongst you is willing to take the four rifle challenge?
Thank You! to all the shooters–all y’all always make this match enjoyable!
The next match is Saturday, October 19.
