Does this mean any 30 caliber cartridge is OK subject to the velocity limit?
If not, then specifically what does 308 mean?

Yes, any 30 cal is fine as long as it is under the 3100fps limit.

I will shoot it why the hell not.

Post by **AR15barrels** » Sat Dec 10, 2011 4:39 pm

We did not get out to setup the steel tonight so it will have to be setup tomorrow morning.
We could sure use some extra help around 6:45 or 7am to place all the steel and paper before the 8am line opening.

Thanks, that would help a lot.

To the guys that offered to help and not shoot...
Bring your gun and gear.
The course of fire SHOULD be able to be run with 2 line officers and 2 people spotting and scorekeeping.
We actually have more helpers than we need right now!

Same department, layoffs were cancelled 24 hours before they were slated to go off, the Chief was forced out by the union. Business as usual.

Apparently being one rev off on the elevation makes you shoot kind of high.....maybe I should actually pay attention to that next time!

It happens to all of us.
That's why they make zero-stop turrets.

Make a habit of always turning your elevation and windage back to their zeros anytime you are not immediatly getting ready to shoot.
That will force you to always check your elevation and windage when you get back on the gun.
This is the habit you want to have so that you never forget to dial the proper windage right before you shoot.

I did the same thing on the speed drill, ended up holding over for the remaining three but screwed myself on time anyway. My instinct is to go fast but I know I'd do better if I just slowed down and concentrated on the details.

savagE · Post by **savagE** » Thu Dec 15, 2011 3:31 pm

I'm kind of slow and take my time when time permits. Only hits count so I try to make every shot count.

johnlee · Post by **johnlee** » Thu Dec 15, 2011 4:41 pm

I shot two stages with the wrong dope.

My 300-yard hostage shots didn't even hit the cardboard and sailed right over.

Lets not talk about not paying attention.... There were 2 stages I zero'd because of not paying attention.

Post by **autoessentials** » Mon Dec 19, 2011 10:26 am

Yep, I shanked one stage too due to bad dope. Hopefully I learn my lesson.

Thanks John for the video. You got my finest moment at the shoot! Awesome work.
