6PPC at 200 Yard for the first time.

[Corvette0096]

Was having a hard time at 100 yards. 100 Yard was down hill so I had to use a board under the rear bag and it was not very steady at all. "Front rest was down all the way" So I tried 200 for the first time in my life and was not expecting this. I used the square as the hold point on the target. Did 5 shots and sent the kid to get the target.

Good shooting...mid .4, out to out smaller than the dime. Fun, isn't it?

Blast.

We shoot downhill a little at Visalia. Tell me about your rifle, rest, and rear bag. I might be able to help you at 100.

Some time back, I had a rear bag that was too low. We have an industrial rubber wholesaler in town, and I got a scrap of 90 durometer neoprene and cut it to shape as a 1" spacer. It worked so well that I told my friend Dave Dohrmann about the suitability of the material for bag spacers, and the rest is history. (He sold bag spacers made of the stuff.) 90 is hard enough that it is not bouncy, but still can bend enough to conform to a bench that is not perfectly flat.

I will have to get a piece of that stuff. That or stick to 200 Yards.
