Shoot, when I was 21 I had salt and pepper hair. People thought I was 30 when I was only 23. I went all silver in my 40's. I earned every damn grey hair I got.I know I look old. Just give me the truth!

Mine came about after a long stressfull drive from Little Rock to the house after a fall I was in terrible pain all the way home. I got home and was getting out of the truck when my right eye started jerking repeatedly causing extreme dizziness. It lasted about 30 seconds and was scary as hell. It took my ability to focus away. When I look at a star at night, I can see 7 of them with one eye and 12 with the other all in different locations on my retina.I’m doing this stuff while I’m in my 20’s so I can’t say “I wish I did that” when I’m in my 50’s lol.
No offense, but first competition. It’s probably the whole package a little you, the rifle, the tough shots, everything. Keep with it. Figure things out a little at a time.Before anyone says “oh yeah just blame the rifle not the shooter”
No it really is my rifle. I had this thing tack driving last year but I think I installed the Magpul stock and never rezeroed so I may have messed up there or something has worked itself loose.. I dunno. All I know is I’m embarrassed and pissed lol.
I only hit the 300 yard target and COULD NOT get a hit on the 400 yard target. I called it quits after that. Figured I will pick a calm day and come back and sight it back in
You really need another cheap hobby!That sounds like a ton of fun. I wish I wasn't so far away.
I've already got the rig, I just need to use it!You really need another cheap hobby!
I have not shot over 300 Yards. But on some of our 235 Yard shots we have three flags. I've seen the 1 st blowing left, the middle straight down, and the 3rd blowing to the right. How do you figure the hold on that?I did absolutely terrible. Something is wrong with my rifle and I can’t pinpoint what but other than that had a fun time helping spot and keep score.
Competition was 10 round sets. You had 10 rounds to reach out to 1000 yards.
300
400
500
600
700
800
900
1000
Start at 300, once you have a hit you move on to the next. Targets were in 100 yard increments. Small targets worth double.
It’s wild what the wind can do down the canyon. I was spotting for a few guys and looking at the ribbon fluttering in the wind. 500 yards was acting like there was a straight heavy crosswind and then 800 looked like there was a small breeze.
I have some work to do though on my rifle trying to figure out where I messed up. I think I may have installed the Magpul stock and never checked zero again. Maybe somethings loose.. Maybe I screwed up my loads… I’m just not sure. Very irritating and I feel dumb.
I also felt weird being the only .308Winchester shooter that I know of there. I’m pretty sure everyone was using some sort of Creedmor.
