I have finally finished "cleaning up" after Saturdays shoot.
Cleaning the rifle took priority on Saturday night and as we got wet it was thoroughly stripped and oiled. Loving my knew torque wrench.
Sorting out the empty cases has taken the best part of two days as I have had to entertain the family as well. They are now sorted for the next time I need them.
I also put some test rounds together to see HOW THE 175 SMK's compare with the 155's. Trying a couple of different overall lengths and loads.
I have to say that I really do not like the SMK 175's, they are so inconsistent in their "shape" that getting consistent OAL's is proving a trying task. I am only looking at them again as I have been wondering if they would have beaten the wind any better on the day.

I have to admit to have been surprisingly sore around the torso for someone who spent the day laying around. My arms feel like I have been in the gym, and where my waterproof trousers have toggles around the waist, I now have bruised ribs - those toggles will be getting replaced with bale twine if nothing else suitable is found.
Thankfully my neck is completely OK - so far.

Can anyone confirm that those were international F Class targets? Or are we doing something different in the UK?

And finally, with all this talk of zombies etc, is anyone else concerned at all the people walking around the Phoenix with FB-UK hoodies on who managed to "increase our numbers"?
All very worrying (checking mirror for strange marks on back of head)

Ah, that would be the barcode then :lol:

I am sure they were the new F Class targets as all of them were 1/2MOA V's. I noticed some bruising on my right shoulder today, a nick over my right eye, a lump out of my right thumb and a nick out of the knuckle on another finger and a scraped elbow no idea how I managed to get so bashed around.
