I have a new addiction and I think they should give a warning!!

5-am came and my mind was in full swing thinking about accuracy... Yesterday I went and shot my first 600-Yard fun day and did very good for just throwing a combination together. 5 shots in a group the size of a apple.. The gun is a Dan Dowling built 6.5x47 Lapua on a Panda MBR hart barrel NF 15-55 comp scope. What did I do when I got home from the shoot? I studied some more. :)

My old addition was fun 0-145 Mph in 9 seconds was fun but this is more of a challenge by far. See Video Below

C'mon up to Eatonville WA Feb 15th and shoot in a 600 yd match. You need to feed your new addiction.

Good Shooting

I might just do that.. Going shooting again Tuesday night under the lights. This is going to be fun. You know a guy named Fred Dobson?
 
Pump Gas, truly? That's like shooting factory ammo in a Benchrest match!

Awesome ride, good luck with the '600!!

(emoticons drool & cool)
 
Smooth as silk with the stereo and AC on! lol ;) Probably lo nines in the quarter?

PS> Welcome to the new addiction, I have done the drag racing thing and like the accuracy thing way better now!

Sweet! This week I drug my 01 convertible GT out of storage from the past 5 years. My wife and I have only been married for about 10 months and so far she likes guns and off road vehicles as much as I do. I lost the drivers seat in my trail rig to her and was not sure how she would respond to my love of a quick car and the "occasional" drift.

After her first ride this weekend she wanted to drive! She also bought me a bunch of Lapua brass for this years season... I love her...

Congrats on the new addiction.
 
Nice car, nice vid, nice pass! I used to be addicted to that stuff too but never had the $$$$ to do what I wanted.
I really still like watching the vids from time to time. Here's one of my favorites of Steve Crook a few years back where he loses his back window on his second pass.

Not to worry, your new addiction will be as much or more fun and challenging as the old one and it sounds like you're well on your way.

Best Wishes

I was rubbing it my buddies face cause my car is faster than his on pump gas than his on $105 for 5 gallons of race fuel.. Yes that was a 9.8@145MPH pass spinning and on low boost.
