Local league

[KMW1954]

Meant to start and post this last week but better late than never.

The outdoor range I work at PT as a RO has an informal rifle league every winter that runs 10 weeks and varies from 100yds to 300yds and each week is a different target. This is a run what ya brung open league with the only real requirements being it must be a center-fire, must have a scope, 22cal to 30cal and must be shot from a front bipod and rear bag.

For the past 3 years I have been shooting a Savage in 223. Was competitive at 100 and 200yds but would get smoked at 300yds. Also learned what is a competitive scope for this.

So this year I am shooting a Savage 110 Switchback action with a Shilen Match Select 6ARC, 28", 4 groove, Bull profile, non-threaded. Sitting in a Boyd's At-One Thumbhole and looking thru an Athlon Argos BTR 10-40X56.

In this I am firing a 105gr. Berger Hybrid over 28.8gr of LeverEvolution seated at touch using Rem 7.5 primers and Starline brass.

Week 1 was the IBS Official 100yd Hunter target. Official score, 191 - 4X
Week 2 was the IBS Official 200yd Hunter Target. Unofficial score 195 - 2X

Why 105 gr Berger Hybrid bullets?

Because as I understood it the 6ARC was designed around a 105gr class bullet.

Have now shot 4 weeks worth of targets. The first 3 weeks are based upon the IBS Hunter targets for 100, 200 and 300yds. This weeks week 4 target is a proprietary design to our league and is call a Cold Bore target. Shot at 100yds, the first sub target  is 1.3MOA with a 9/16" black center bull.

The Cold Bore must have the very first two shots into this sub-target before any other shots. Break the center is worth 25 points, inside the circle is 10 points. Next are 3 square bull subs of varying size. The center is 20, inside the square is 10 and these are one shot each. Lastly there are 3 All-or-Nothing subs, 5 shots at each. All must break the line on the outer circle are there are no points. Each of these subs are 30 points.

Now can anyone instruct me as to how to resize this photo?

When I resize photos, I edit them in Paint and use the resize function, it is in percentages.

I see there is no way to post thumbnail photos. Or if there is I don't see it.

Giving up on posting photos.

Shot week 5 Friday, 200yds. Weather conditions when started. 39*, Hard overcast, headwind at about 13mph. Had light rain, heavy fog over frozen ground early in the day. At time of shooting had a nice clear target picture.

Target is in the shape of a Maltese cross. 4 triangles, 4 divisions. Any shot breaking the outer perimeter does not score. Shot on inner line scores higher value. Subs to be 5 shots from top, bottom, right, left.

Top sub 45, bottom sub 46, right sub 45, left sub 10! Dammit!!

After the 4th shot on the right target the sky broke open with bright blue skies and direct sunlight over my back and onto the target. Target picture got washed out by the sun and the mirage became horrendous.
