Now that you mention it. Where is the class in Donaldsonville at?
I wouldn't mind making one of these.
I wanted to thank John Laws (Akajun) for putting this on. That would also include the LSA, the Appleseed guys and a host of the regular hipower crowd that acted as coaches and equipment providers.
"geeck" from here was my coach. He made everyone a little nervous when he went into the port-a-let with the M14 but that didn't bother me. I'd say it was a good day.
good shooting , did you find your coat? I left it under your carport.Well done gentlemen. Coaches and shooters. Whoever thought up this idea needs to be bought a beer. John, Brad, the LSA, and Project Appleseed. Thank you.
Myself I knew I had a big issue with standing. Rest of the positions was OK with percentages in the mid to high 80s but standing was horrid. Got a bit of coaching after the XTC match the weekend before. Then got fine tuned at the clinic. Brad saw things I didn't know I was doing.
Result was an increase of 20 percentage points in standing scores, incremental increases in the other positions and turned in a 88.8% for the match. One point away from scoring Expert. Best I've done in a match or practice.
And geeck, I'll fix my ejector so my rifle doesn't toss brass in your ear. However it was easy to find the find the brass after the stage.

Geeck,
I might be seeing you on the 21st. My barrel is a take-off and supposedly not cutting it @600. I take his word for it. But you know I am going to shoot it @600 anyway.
I really need some refinement in a few areas. Head out of ass might be a good start. A big thing I found is that so much of this is a mental game - so as long as you are thinking correctly you are half way there. For not having shot much in about 2 years I was thrilled with some strings. Some not so much.
Ellis,
You look rock steady in prone from me watching your barrel. If any of you find any WCC with brass primers give it back to Ellis!
One thing I would really like to see is more coordination between LSA, Appleseed, NRA and local ranges. That really is where the success lies. I let my LSA membership lapse and I am going to go back and pay for the years I missed. They never lapsed on their support of myself and all of Louisana's shooting community. I know Dan Z., Jay Hunt and others put a lot of personal commitment into the sport and it is probably even more the I realize.
Wife reported that coat has been retrieved. Thanks.good shooting , did you find your coat? I left it under your carport.
I get the same way. Focused to the point that the front sight, the target and what's behind it is all that matters.I was in my bubble I only barely realized it was happening, -snip-
Agreed.those reduced 600 targets are tough. I'd rather shoot the MR @600 on a "no-wind" day than the MR 52 @200
Nod to coach Brad. Tweaked my position to where there was zero wobble and recoil didn't get the sights off the black. As for brass, only lost 2 or 3 cases over the two days. I'm good.Ellis,
