Pawnee Summer Run N Gun - July 18

[FOG]

Less than 8 weeks to go...

My mini run-n-gun practices in my pasture are gettin' tough with all this darn rain. As much as I appreciate the moisture, enough is enough... I'm tired of wallering around in the mud.

Shooting is coming along ok too, but I still need to try my luck at 500 yds. and see where I'm at.

Just a blast from the past to bump the thread. Thanks to the Spearhead Transmission.

Heck yeah! THanks, UMB.

I picked up massive quantities of pork shoulder this week for JT to smoke, the landowner has a new obstacle, T-shirts will be done soon, targets are being prepared!

Y'all ready?

Anyone have a place to practice 500 yds? I stopped my okcgunclubembership and the long range is the only thing I'm missing from it.

Of course nothing beats shooting at actual distance, but if you can't do it, just get a chrono. Or if you're using a common load and barrel length, you might be able to find velocity info on the web. Anyway, plug your velocity, caliber, bullet weight, and all your other info into a ballistics calculator (there are free ones online), and you will get some extremely accurate bullet drop data. From there, it's just making sure you can shoot 4 MOA or better from prone.

Love the Hitler vid BTW. It will always be a Run 'n Gun classic.

Got to stretch out to 300m today. Making hits all the way out with irons... too bad it was an issued M16 and not my Mk18. Will need to get out and shoot it some more before the end of the month.

This rain is killing my practice/training regimen. UMB and English kanigit need to come up with a way to put the rain on hold a while.

Ran my new optic out to 500 on Sunday. The PA 4x Prism scope with ACSS reticle is legit. Ranging and wind holds are on the money.

PS - If you're not familiar with the effect on trajectory of canting the rifle, read up.

You mean I wasn't supposed to be doing all these rain dances???

They neighbors will probably appreciate that I won't be cavorting about in a loincloth anymore...
