1st Competition on 17th April
Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2011 6:31 pm
I spent this afternoon at the range with the Winchester and the RM 10/22 (joys of working from home)
I ran my newly reloaded ammo thru the Winchester and I must admit it shot very well, good tight groups. I still have a feed/extraction problem which causes the action to jam and makes finishing a detail impossible. I had a case split and two got dented when the action jammed. New brass once I know if I'm keeping it I think. Dodgyrog's boolits are spot on.
I then fired up the Rimfire Magic 10/22 after getting new rings for it. Zero was almost bang on from the previous rings. First two strings were amazing but then got worse, I suspect a wobbly table and operator error. I then shot double taps at 10yds and am very happy with it.
So, Sunday, first NESSC Competition, Strathpeffer GC at Drums (Aberdeen Full Bore Gun Club http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/bestwicks/default.htm) Great club and excellent facilities. We should get a team together and I'll post an update and pictures next week.
Wish me luck!![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
I wonder what the CCTV made of me buying 303 ammo from Dromia in his white van on the garage forecourt of the Services at Perth at 0800 this morning.
