Well I did a little shooting on the 31st. But spent about 6-7 hours today shooting and b.s. with my friends at the local spot. Everything went good. Though I had to get on one idiot young guy who was shooting too wide instead of straight ahead. I got the camera for christmas too. Had some of the yugoslavian m75 SNIPER 8mm with me. At the distance I was shooting the hotshot 139 grain soft tips were more accurate. So... whatever. I was shooting igman through the fals. I need to get a brass savr! But the flashholes are small in this shit anyways. Well here are the photos.

We setup the small thing infront do to a 25m sight in and then the targets in the back are at about 70m or so but the silouhette is alot smaller than a full sized so it's like we were shooting a little over 100m. You can see a few little water bottles I setup too.

I think i'm getting up to a decent speed charging my mauser. Considering I'm a lefty. But it's a straight bolt so it's not bad. The last time I start smacking on the handle The clip was empty so uh that's why it wouldn't close :) If you look closely you can see my impacts in the bottom right corner. I was aiming for the dark spot.

Looks like a perfect day to shoot! Besides, if it gets too cold, it looks like all you need to do is stand by that SKS,,,the color alone should warm you up!:rofl:

Yeah even though it was sunny it was in the 50's or so probably. Maybe a little lower. Warmed up after noon.

Nice L1. Atleast you don't have to contend with snow. Makes brass scrounging a might bit difficult. Aren't Mausers fun? :D
