Prairie Dog / Sniper Match In Pueblo

[Dinosdeuce]

First time for me and it was a hoot! What a difference it makes putting a time constraint on shooting at a small target at a fair distance. Looking forward to the next match. A couple of the those "dogs" took a beating.

Thanks Hoser for another great time. Love an excuse to play with some of the toys I spend too much money on. Hey Hoser, who donated the shirts? I would like to send a "thank you" for their support.
Wolly, would you like to make a wager on the next shoot? I promise to shoot from the prone next time.

I Tried to Take a shot of everyone but my battery died mid way. I'll try to make sure its charged next tim

That was a ton-o-fun. I'll definitely be back.
Not sure about 'outstanding'; wait until those other scores are located.
Thanks to Hoser, CD, and all who put the match on. I know how thankless the match organizing, set up, etc. gets when you do it year after year. Hoser is in the E. CO match director hall of fame.

So my big takeaways (this from a IPSC gamer, learning 3-gunner, total LR noob):
1. Don't over-correct (esp. for windage).
2. Trigger control, trigger control, trigger control.
3. Prairie dogs look more like titmice (esp. at 425).
4. Shooter -- do your job. No one or no piece of equipment is going to do it for you (a key lesson for an IPSC Open shooter where "close enough" gets you by sometimes).
5. Hoser's a handsome man.

Man, I had a great time today! I got my ass handed to me, but still had a blast! Got to shoot with some really good guys too. Thanks Hoser for putting on a great match! See you at the next one!

Great weather today, good turnout, results just went out, PM me if you didn't get them. Took a few pics today they are below.


View through my 15x Nightforce scope, the black thing to the left of the #5 is a Prairie Dog at 425 yards.

Hey! Who posted the pic of the fat bald plumber? Nobody wants to see that! Just kidding.

Had a blast today! Seriously, all you guys should come and try this!

Another great match! Couldn't believe it was January. See you all next month.

Yea I had a ball and yes I really suck at this.
I need to find some place to shoot at 400+ yards. Apparently I don't have any clue where this rifle is shooting at 425. I never did hit 5, 6 or 7.
I'm moving in a few months so It doesn't pay for me to join a range.
Anybody know of place to get some 400 yard zeros?

[Wolley]

There will be a match, as of right now.

However a lot of us will be at Eddies funeral and will be running late or not showing up at all.

Eddie? Someone who shoots at the PD matches?
