I cut my teeth on a savage, just in the last year I have gotten a custom.

This one didn't I had a great time and met a great group of shooter . Other then blowing a bullet apart on the first sting . I would done very respectfully . I had 8 10 shots in the 10 ring and one just out in the 9 And one on the ground around 100 yard away . I think it was the first bullet . I did learn we shoot in far greater condition then I seen there .
If all clubs treat shooters had as good as they did . Shooting would be fun .
Even with a non score on one bullet I ended mid pack .
I can say shooting gongs at our club is way harder. Larry

Larry -
A round not on is a DQ and your group & score are disqualified because it was an incomplete fired target.
How do you end "mid pack" when you had a uncompleted target?
You don't... your at the bottom of the list (along with any others that DQ).

And your leaving out 1/2 the story: what was your other target's group & score?

Besides, in LR-Benchrest, group size is presidence, and score is a subsequent of the group.

So far as I know, the only sanctioned competition shot at Manatee is 300yd F-class. Which I believe is only in the winter months. Theres a group of good shooters there and the facilities could easily support great matches. But it will never happen.

The club could be made to where it could hold matches but the location stops attendence . It's a good 4 hr drive just to reach the club from another state .

I drove 37 hours to attend a match in your neighboring state. you might be pleasantly surprised with attendance, especially if you have a winter schedule. I know it would be worth the trip just to bust your balls

And I would like for you to do it also . If I hadn't had Pryor comments I would of been There if for no other reason then you .
I would of let you to shoot a savage while doing it . I can say you ended up with one the most devoted Shooters and a great guy our club has had . Just don't tell him I said it Larry

Tom
