100 yard game of HORSE

[mxgsfmdpx]

Looks like @mxgsfmdpx and @Carl Ross are shooting off hand unless someone else chimes in today.

I’ll shoot this after some mountain/canyon shooting tomorrow morning.

4 off hand shots in 40 seconds, correct? Is there a pack on/off requirement?

Thanks.

Didn’t specify. You do you.

 

[mxgsfmdpx]

Didn’t specify. You do you.

I did "O" originally with pack on, so this time I did pack off...

I thought my whole body would be in the frame, but after watching it back, only the end of my gun made it in frame (was trying to get the target and myelf in the same frame). I'll screenshot the video and post target photo and score here in a bit after some meetings.

Score @Bluumoon

38 and 1 X.

35-1x, enjoy writing an August course of fire @mxgsfmdpx

I think you shot that high right one on purpose

I might be wobbly, I might be busy trying to finish a house. But…also wobbly.

August Course Of Fire:

Same yardage, same target, same scoring, same tie breaker as original @Bluumoon post.

H:
1. 20 Seconds.
2. Start from standing with pack on, rifle in hand, condition 3. Use a tree branch, pillar, 2x4 standing up, hockey stick, tall boulder, tall stump, shade structure support pole, etc. anything tall enough to allow you a standing/supported shot (if using a tripod it must be stored how you pack it on a hunt). Ideally something like the shot below (exact tree and shot position used to kill a mule deer 2 years ago). Shoot 3 shots.
3. On Paper.




O:
1. 30 Seconds.
2. Start from standing with pack on, rifle in hand, condition 3. Remove pack. Build a seated/supported position and gather sight picture on target, maintaining condition 3. Stand up. Grab pack and move laterally at least 10 feet (we are breaking position and changing the shooting angle on a moving animal that gave us no shot opportunity the first time we built the position). Shoot 2 seated supported shots.
3. On paper


R:
1. 45 Seconds.
2. Start from standing with pack on, rifle in hand, condition 3. Set rifle down and remove pack (or don't) and sprint 25 yards down range and back. 4 shots any position you choose.
3. On paper.


S:
1: 20 Seconds.
2: Start from standing with pack on, rifle in hand, condition 3. Shoot 3 kneeling supported or unsupported shots.
3. On paper.

E:
1. 45 Seconds.
2. Start from standing with pack on, rifle in hand, condition 3. Shoot 1 standing off hand shot. Next, shoot 1 seated or kneeling unsupported shot. Next, remove pack and shoot 1 seated or kneeling supported shot. Next, shoot 1 supported prone shot. BE SAFE! DO NOT RACK until your next position is built. Ideally your safety will be on until face on stock.
3. On paper.

Let me know if there are any questions. Have fun and be safe!

Are we putting our targets horizontal this month?

. I plan on being all in the black this month. If not specifically defined it’s fair game.

I’m heading to Northern California for work for the next couple weeks. I’ll get to the August letters when I’m back. Looking forward to seeing how folks do.

 

[Carl Ross]

I'll shoot it, might have to actually hustle with those times.

With bear season open in WA and lots of shooting bans in place due to fire I may not be able to shoot this month but I’m gonna try to fit it in.

I believe in you.

Ya'll have been slacking while I've been gone for work travel. I won't be back until the middle of next week and will shoot it then.

Slammed with work, batching it, and trying to keep up with dog training…

Hopefully this coming week.

Family is leaving me to my own devices for a couple days, so long as work doesn’t bother me I’ll shoot it tomorrow or Sunday.

Shooting the 22CM this month, as that’s what I’ve been working on today, albeit this is the Mead 77gr stuff that I’m getting 2MOA plus out of (great brass though). We are going to blame the Mead for dropping a shot on H. The end of video R is worth watching.

H-18
O-20
R—40
S-15
E-37 1x

130 and 1x

Need to practice kneeling, or just write it off as an option, that was terrible.

Here’s terrible example of shooting prone.
Shorter times had me moving and transitions had me thinking.

Haha! They were like, “oh it’s just that guy shooting off his porch again.”

Yeah, none of them care anymore, at least shooting suppressed. Just threw me off as that's the nicest buck I've ever seen on the property and I didn't see him till I was in the scope getting ready to shoot.
