this is a frustrating match, I finally have the williams sight on the 1322 carbine I'm using now but its taking a tremendous amount of time to fine tune it.
1st off - there is no immediate feedback (with my eyes) I have to walk to the target or pick up a well scoped rifle to see where my shots went.
2nd - I'm finding that I have to play with both pumps and elevation to get where I want to be.

I've spent almost enough time playing with this to shoot all the matches for a week.
Sorry, just had share while I was waiting for the neighbor to finish grilling.

It's a rough match, that's for sure. I've shot two rounds of this match so far this week myself. I'm sitting on a postable target, but I'm hoping to find time today to go for a third attempt. I also need to make some sight adjustments. Seems I need to go two clicks right and maybe one or two clicks up from my 10m settings for this one, and that's with sights I'm used to. I can imagine the frustration of getting used to something new.

Found a few minutes. Only one zero, and that makes me happy. Ecstatic would be no zeros, but I'm re-finding my groove. I started this shoot 2 clicks right and one click up from my 10m settings. After the first two shots my target fell over which was a good thing as it prompted me to go 2 more clicks up on the sight. I think I can go one more click up and one less click right. I'll try that next week. All in all... me happy!

Yep, me too....I can't see where the pellets hits. Usually I just zero the rifle and use another rifle's scope to check the shots/groups. If most of the shots look good, it's a go. I change the target sheet and shoot the match. I only see the holes on the paper when I go retrieve the sheet.

Managed one match after work on a very warm early spring-like temperatures.
