From the shooting range

[mark-hunter]

I heard some people shoot moa and submoa, but I dont know where these moa and submoa live.

I just go on a range, and shoot old fashion from stick and off hand, trying to hit that vital area on the target to keep in shape for my next hunt.

Come on Mark, you're a pro. You are the president of the Longe range organization in Croatia. And now I have to believe you that you shoot 100m targets

Correction.... secretary..... not president.

And I wish I am a pro, so I could get paid for what I do!

Yup, before the hunt, I spend copious amount of ammo, on sticks. at 50 (22lr), 100, 200 meters (center fire rifles)

Submoa and moa do not impress me from bench.
But vital zone size group, from standing position does.

Make sure your neighbor doesn't accidentally walk in that fog

These T-shirts were created after a visitor was killed by police during a drug raid in Kuranda in the 1970's. The Wanted poster was anonymously created after the raid in protest against the unjust shooting. A printed copy of the poster is available at the KHS office. These T-shirts were created...

Agreed. The bench is for developing loads and checking zero. Field positions are used for practice/skill development.

I like the bench the most. It's my obsession. Of course, I also practice other shooting positions. Let's say that my least favorite is shooting from a stick.

You don't even need to go to the hunting grounds, the animals will come to you
Is this a U/O rifle?

Yes, that rifle is my Beretta Silver Sable O/U 9.3x74R. Another photo of my range, with the 300M gongs in the background. I had to wait for the moose and mule deer to clear out before I shot at the gongs that winter afternoon.

Fiocchi group is ok?

 

[GuttormG]

Yes, in this title it does the same as Normal Jaktmatch (Normal FMJ training ammo).

OK two more, a bunch of mule deer walking past a coyote I shot just 100M to the E side of my shooting range. Coyote is laying in front of the small buck.

And a whitetial buck I passed up last fall while hunting mule deer just 300M behind where my gongs are hanging. I'm fortunate to be able to hunt on my own land and have a place where I can shoot targets whenever I want.

Finally found something my Tikka 223 stainless (LH) likes! 55gr Hornady V-Max seems to be its favorite which is good as I hadn't had much luck elsewhere. Run it suppressed and its a beautiful thing to shoot.

Took it out for some 100/200 situational off the sticks practice (get up and on, find target, load a round, safety, take the shot and repeat, or vary with a follow up) and found that I'm in an acceptable range (~1-2 inch at 100, 2-3.5 inch at 200) still after a few months off, but could use some additional practice sessions before I leave. So poor me, will be off to the range again a couple of times this week.
