Range time this morning was less than what I had hoped for. The temperature was okay but the 12 mph wind was playing heII with the target board. I used the Faux Parker Hale with the 7.62mm 2A1 Ishapore barrel. The scope is a Nikko Stirling 4-12×50 with 25yd - infinity focusing. The chosen load used was 42.0grns of IMR4895, 168grn Hornady BTHP bullets, No. GM215M primers, and Lapua cases set to an AOL of 2.750"
For this submission I first did my sighting in on some shoot n see targets. I continued on getting the barrel hot and fouled. I used up forty rounds to accomplish that task. The last ten rounds were used on the SR-1 target with 8 shots in the X ring and two in the ten ring. I did not flinch on the ten ring shots. The target board was moving back and forth with that 12 mph wind. The pic through the scope is for reference only showing what 100 yards looks like for me with the scope set at 6x...

Great result Goosic, 100-8x. That will be tough to beat.

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!

Goosic, can you post this target and score on the Virtual Match thread so we don’t loose it.
A minor point, I think it would be better if you don’t add the red aiming mark to the target, that way no one will say you had an advantage. It doesn’t concern me, but good to keep things equal for all.... Again, excellent result. We’re going to have to make this harder for those shooting in the “Unlimited” class...

You could use a smaller target for scoped rifles and keep the standard one for match and iron sights.

I'd hold off on the "making it harder" for unlimited... you haven't seen my results yet!

No worries HT. We’ll see what the results are at the end of the year.
