Went up left hand canyon outside of Boulder today. I did my best to zero the rifle in, but it was windy and I had to shoot a bit uphill in order to get an appropriate 25 meter distance. I was also laying on the ground on top of a tarp and got quite uncomfortable after a while, so after I got it pretty close (top left target) I called it close enough. I'll actually head to a rifle range one of these days and zero it in on a nice bench rest.

I was using ADCOM M855 military surplus ammo that I picked up at Gander Mountain for $3.99/box. I put about 150 rounds downrange. It shot pretty consistently and I had no failures throughout the day. I also discovered that it will penetrate a quarter inch of steel from about 20 meters. :twisted:

I have very limited experience shooting rifles (I've only shot a .22 before), but I found the M4A3 to be very easy to shoot and quite accurate. It was easy to quickly acquire targets and accurately put them down. I killed quite a number of sporting clays -- they looked at me wrong, and I can't stand that. I'm very pleased with my purchase so far. :mrgreen:
