What did you shoot today?

[Ks5shooter]

G42

 

[Jim Watson]

Pre Staccato STI Eagle at club USPSAish.
Beaten by a girl. And not even the same one who beat me last time.
But since I recruited one and assisted the other, I am just proud of them.

 

[berettaprofessor]

Browning SA-22 short.

 

[Walkalong]

Nephew and great nephews shot the .22s.

 

[LoonWulf]

6arc build


Had a few more out but that was the only one that got a photo taken lol.

 

[Gelrir]

Two rifles in 7mm Mauser: a Remington Rolling Block, and an 1895 Chilean. Mostly checking for extraction problems, case length and condition, primer condition, etc. ... all seemed well.

This sunny afternoon I fine tuned the sighting on my savage 64 with a sig Romeo 5 and my ruger 10/22 with a 3-9x32. I upgraded my rest and a solid heavy bench is next.

 

[1976B.L.Johns.]

49 rounds of 45 ACP through my Kimber Rapide this morning.

Was a bit upset finding the range that I care for with un-authorized "targets" shot up.

Fired 7 mags X 7 times as fast as I could at 7 yards.
Groups improved through the volley.

Felt better after cleaning up the place and then taking my anger out on a 6 inch paper plate.

 

[ozarkhillbilly]

FN 502, I put 250rds through it and the last 50 with a Dead Air Mask.

 

[hawg]

Kibler Woodsrunner.

 

[Jim Watson]

Well, the MD cancelled my appointment, he was called to the hospital for an acute case.
So I am going shooting. Watch this space.

Uppercut .22 Defensive
M&P C 1003 fps 71 ft lb
Pathfinder 3" 927 fps 61 ft lb
M18 4" 962 fps 65 ft lb.

Started out good, first magazine in auto good, revolvers fired and extracted easily.
But second magazine in auto misfunctioned at the very start.

Punch is the only gimmick round that is ok in that gun, Silvertip, Stinger, and Uppercut not.
If I were to carry that M&P C, it would be with MiniMags while I tested more Velocitors.

The Uppercut is the easiest to extract from a revolver, should you have to make a hasty reload.

Resprung 9mm magazines fed ok, even with SWC.

Took my dad to shooting club that I’m a member of this afternoon for a little pistol shooting, had a good time, it was a beautiful day.

After we were done shooting pistol, I went over to the rifle range to test some loads I made for the 6.5CM.

My measurements say .255in 3 shot groups at 100 yards.

Pretty happy with the results, now to see how they shoot at 300 yards.

My barrel is 3" shorter than the typical barrel in this image, because 'they tell me that' around 2003 nice Austrian Stg kits were only $150 (!), and plenty of barrels were shortened. Mine is an Austrian StG (kit) on Imbel; tried out today for a second time using just 30 rds. It was assembled by one of the US' best FAL gun smiths in 2003, then stored by the owner.
The ribbed metal Austrian hand guards did Not get too hot to hold (despite being 84* F.).

Why not very hot? I really spread out my shots mostly because of today's ammo prices. But-- today's "high" prices are Pre-(next) Panic prices.

 

[Jim Watson]

A friend has a couple, one full bull with bipod, weighs a ton. Another cut back to carbine length. He hasn't shot them recently, the novelty has worn off.

I shot some powder puff 9mms to assist a guy on TFL with mild ammo for students.

 

[Walkalong]

1905 Target .38 Spl, 686-3 .357, 586-3 .357. All mild loads. Shot at an 18" steel plate at 75 yards. Hit it some too. Rusty.

 

[1976B.L.Johns.]

Shot the Kimber Rapide again today.
Got a bit more serious than on Monday. 8 mags of seven, but at a much slower pace.
I lost 2 pieces of brass.
I like to use my tailgate to keep "Track".
One can see my cheap $0.03 six inch paper plate target under the pistol.
Shot at 7 to 10 yards.
Still not good enough to post a target picture.



Maybe it was the coffee..................

Maybe it was the coffee................

I've always said that drinking coffee doesn't affect me any. It's the not drinking it that messes me up.
Turns out I've been lying to myself for years because I CANNOT shoot worth 2 cents if I've only had coffee and no grub.

 

[1976B.L.Johns.]

I CANNOT shoot worth 2 cents if I've only had coffee and no grub.

May be me too.
And I have heard of that before.
No food this A.M. and that was my third cup.

 

[Spats McGee]

My 10/22 and my RAR Target.

 

[Eutycus]

I don't even need a silencer.

 

[jstert]

800 rounds of 22lr cci minimag and standard ammo over two afternoons this week out of a ruger sr22, which puts me somewhere north of 20,000 rounds over a dozen years out of my two sr22 pistols.

 

[Jim Watson]

GSSF Indoor.

 

[Legionnaire]

Got to the range today to function test and sight in the latest AR build: a 12-inch 6.5 Grendel pistol built on a stripped PSA lower. The Strike Industries short pistol tube and buffer kept the OAL just under 26 inches. First up was to get the Midwest Industries backup sights sighted in. I got the windage sorted easily, but will need to adjust the front sight for elevation. Then got the Aimport CompML2 zeroed at 50 yards. From the rest, I was able to hold about two inches at 50. Gun ran great with several different Duramags.

I used a Brass Goat without a hopper and it dropped the brass on the bench or at my feet; didn't lose a single piece. The Garmin Xero worked like a champ, picking up every shot from the rest; it missed a couple when I moved away from the bench to shoot unsupported. The 123 grain Hornady Black averaged 2,238 fps; not bad from a 12-inch barrel. I'm very pleased with the results.

 

[Mars5l]

Tried out my new toys today. .22 can was funner to use, need to get some more CCI Suppressor ammo. Couldn't see the sights on the Beretta but made it work.
