Range day brag thread

[TheDudeAbides]

Couldn't find a thread like this, but I know there's quite a few shootists around. Thought it'd be good to have a place to show off your shooting, especially since I had a pretty good day at the range last week.
I've been working up a round for my new Remington 700 varmint in .223, and finally found one I'm really happy with.
Both photos are of 10 shot strings, fired from a bench, supported bi-pod front, sandbags rear.
Both strings were the same load, and the first 20 of my 100 testers. Accuracy fell off appreciably with each additional 10th of a grain.

Anybody else wanna brag?

Pretty awesome. My brag is I completed a CCW permit class today. Among the things I learned is I would like more training.

Hard to brag about any one target. Last USPSA match I shot 85% As for the match (5 stages, about 110 rounds). Revolver Division, S&W 625 in 45 GAP.

2011 Wisconsin State IDPA Match. 2nd Place SSP-SS (literally missed first place on my last shot of the day. fml) and High Junior (Best of the sub-21 group). Proud father on the right.

and this is from an NISA USPSA match shortly after the State shoot. I'd have to go back to check my scores, but I made A and was not far from Master. You can see videos of this match and the IDPA state match on my channel

great grouping Dude, its amazing what a 5.56 can do if you channel it correctly.

also, Alex, awesome shooting! i enjoyed watching your videos. kind of makes me want to jump into the competitive side of the hobby.

Thanks Mick! The competitive side of the hobby is addicting, I highly recommend it. There is a great IDPA club somewhere around the Twin Cities, they always have a big crew show up to the WI State Shoot. Good shooters, good people. If you ever need help with it, feel free to contact me - I'll do what I can.

Only 100 yds. Now that I've got a load I'm happy with, I'm gonna take it out to 300 and see what it'll do.
Alex- that's some fine shooting, duder. I've always been interested in IDPA, but have never gotten around to it. The extent of my competitive shooting is chasing empty shotgun shells around the quarry with .22 pistols.

Try Varget if you can. When I shot NRA highpower, I'd say it was the predominant powder on the line. Varmint + target = Varget. Not temp sensitive at all either. Loves to be compressed. Try it.
