    Looks like a whopping 516-5x on Jan 2011. Looking back, I really did not shoot F T/R on any regular basis until Aug of 2011.
    Man have the scores jumped since back then.

    Have you REALLY kept every score card from every match you've shot??? Damn man, I couldn't tell you where this past Saturday's went!

    I think my first score was somewhere around 520-530 back in 2008 or 2009......ish.

    Those were only the ones that I found in one of the drawers of my loading bench. I use them to camouflage invoices of all the crap I buy to feed my habit from the better half.
    Have not pulled all the old ones out of my range bag.:D

    My first ever match was Ted's first match as well I believe,.....was fun trying to find the range, lol. I think my score was 515-520. Was shooting a DPMS LR .308. I have only shot 3 matches total. This last one would have been my best but things come loose when your just breaking in a rifle. That's why its handy to have your gun smith on hand :D

    Yep.
    When you shoot nra sanctioned matches you earn classification based upon your scores.
    It is all tracked by your NRA membership number.

    Just joined. Will wist for my numbers. Some NRA guys are at cabelas. You fill out your form it is $35 for a one year an when you turn it in you are handed a $25 cabelas gift card. You can't beat that and no reason not to join.
    If you know anyone that needs to sign up send em over that way.
