Groups and Steroids going prone!!
« on: March 08, 2009, 07:59:38 AM »
After shooting like a putz at offhand yesterday with the new Disco .22, I thought I would give it another go today but prone with a box supporting the front end! I was trying to get to grips with the trigger and I think something clicked! I did the gamo 4 target match and the steroid 15 match but just for fun! I could say that I'm pretty pleased with myself but I'd be telling lies! I'm still grinning 2 hour later! The middle row of the 'Steroid15' felt so sweet that my belly was turning after each shot! I was using Gamo match 13.88gr at 10m set on 3x mag!

Gamo 4 target 199 4x     'Steroid15' 139

Nice shooting Truman!!!!! The wind here is reaking havoc on anything past 15 yrds today. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful day. But the wind is swirling from every direction and just when I think I got it figured out, it switches directions. I got three wind flags out and they all point in different directions.

I'll try again later if it lays.

We've just finished 3 days of rain and wind! Yesterday cleared up in the morning for an hour or so but today was spot on! No rain, no wind and it was sunny and hot! Just what I needed you a good shoot with the Disco! Good luck for later Ron!

Cheers Stan! At least now I know I can't blame a bent barrel or a loose scope mount!!!
