cascadedad

Thanks for posting this target, after I left I really wondered what it looked like.

For fill in information, I had just re-mounted this Bushnell Trophy in some Millet Angle Lock Rings on top of the extended bases that Doc White sent me. I bore sighted it for left and right. Terry and I headed to Kennewick for the weekend so I took the gun with me hoping to do some shooting, between ice skating performances by my grand daughter.

I tied in with cascadedad and his son between performances and we ran out in the hills to do some shooting. It really was a lot of fun, wish we, I, could have stayed and done a lot more shooting but had to get back to the ice rink.

I loaded a 250 grain XTP/MMP-HPH12 sabot on top of 100 grains of T7 with a Rem 209-4 and took the first shot I wanted to make sure it was on paper. Then cascadedad's 7th grade son loaded a duplicate load and took his shot. He has been shooting quite a bit with his dad and has shot a 12 guage quite a lot so I was confident he could handle the gun (he was a nose guard on his school football team also) His shot printed just to the right of mine. Then he loaded a round for his dad and when was all said and done he cloverleafed my first shot. cascadedad mention a xwind as being a "slight breeze" - well for those wind blown people that live in the "Tri-Cities" of Washington - it might have been a slight breeze, but for us guys that do not live in the wind it was a really healthy 15-20 MPH crosswind. With three different people shooting the same rifle off the hood of a Suburban with one bag under the forearm - I was really impressed with the group considering all off the factors.... I become more impressed with the White everytime out...

The BEST thing about the whole outing was "the sharing" - it was great...

Raining "cats & dogs" here in north Idaho today so I am stuck doing "honey-do's" - hopefully tomorrow...
