May ALR Postal Shoot

[Dennis Daigger]

#1 looks to me like 2 9s and 2 8s for a 34.

My second try, Dorothy the .54 jaeger, Douglas barrel wide land narrow groove 1:45 twist; 70 gr FFg, .018 patch with dilute dawn soap and water lube, .535 RB, 50 yards, sand bag rest, avg MV = 1261.1 fps (Playing with new Garmin chrono). A 26 I think.



My third try, Evelyne the .54 jaeger, Moody barrel narrow lands wide grooves 1:33 twist; 70 gr FFg, .018 patch, lubed as above, .535 RB, 50 yards, sand bag rest, avg MV = 1254.3 fps. A 19 or 20 I think.




No time this month for a 4th target.

Was down with some sort of plague for a couple of weeks, and then rain settled in.
Was able to get 2 targets shot over the last couple of days...wished it was more , but 2 will have to do.  25 yards, off hand, .62 smoothbore, 80 gr FFg , bare .610 pure lead ball, followed by a wad of wasp nest

foresterdj,  I agree, your best target appears to be a 26.  Bob, I think your best is a 28, but it is very hard to read online. 

Overall, I am going to call to call okawbow the winner this month with a 40.  Four shots completely inside the ten ring, and a zero close by. 

Taylor, no offense meant at all to your shooting.   That is a fine target also reading 40.  I read your target as three solid tens, a half-ball ten, and a zero just outside. 

I really hate scoring when it is so close. 

God Bless,    Marc

Well, I didn’t really expect to win this one. Wish we could do a shoot off, Taylor. You should have shot against me today at my monthly club shoot. I managed to win, but had 1 shot completely off the scoring rings because of a slow fire. For June, we can go back to a regular ring target.
