So will my recent M1a be DQ'd for those extra special cartouches stamped on the sights.
If i can get the cracks shored up i will run it with the GI stock if not the archangel will have to do.
Ok i almost did not put the front band back on to see if free floating helped.No secret rules like the CMP has. Plastic stock ok too, just no free float match rigs.
Looks like we might get some opportunities before it's even officially winter:

got a dusting over night here in Plymouth Ma areaAlways love snow before Thanksgiving!
a little mix of weapons there....that snow coach remends me of a picture of my dad driving a M3 halftrack retrofitted with skis up front. said it was all good until you got off the wide open fields. Wheels went back on after the first few skis got busted off trying to turn in woods and rocks.Looks like 'qualifying' weather is here. No question it will be below freezing tomorrow! Single-digit lows are forecast at my range the next two days. A bit early for that, IMO!

You could try my method:would have been better but my cheap spotscope fogged out on me
I don’t have time ! I have 18min to set up shoot and clear out!You could try my method:
- Don't bring spotting scope
- Shoot three shots
- Run 100 yds through the mud, inspect target
- Run back 100yds to firing line
- Repeat

IIRC you can post several scoresI can be positively pokey during my 45 minute timeframe.
Hopefully my Varget 8mm test loads will work today. If so, I'll try to run an SR-1 out there for my first Winter Warrior target, I think there's still some snow on the ground (at least up in NH). If not, practice run.
I also did up my first fifteen Makarov test rounds.

Might I suggest a military pistol/revolver side show? I have scanned a 50 foot NRA target.

the miserable prick count is pretty low and I don't want to wake them from their Ol' Grandad induced slumber.
? Thats scaled correctlyWas my target too small?

Too late...i'm already awake. I'm taking out the K31 tomorrow after work, because I'm sure there's a snow pile kicking around at the range and I need to feel like I did something with my life. I have 20 rounds of bunny fart loads ready to rock at 100yds (35gr IMR4895 behind Nosler 168CCs in PPU brass), but may only shoot 10 because I have some 'breaking in' of other rifles to do as well (see November Acquisitions thread if you're interested in my non-qualifying rifle)
You guys might be in a lot of trouble come spring time if I get my ass moving on the M14 I just barreled/headspaced last week! None of those cheaters NM sights going on it either
I say let the pistols play.
Service pistol target.
B8 or SR1 i think would be a fine substitution?
25 yards any position ?
As for what pistol. Any surplus pistol and close enough clones?
What say you, mountain
Post a score and get entry into the luck of the draw and pistol feather fluffing until next year!
