Thanks for replying, i would have forgotten snacks. Is there an opportunity to fire at the range before the competition? That's not part of the clinic correct?
I have a mixed vintage cmp garand. Stanard issue. The comp is at 200yrds? Should I zero it to 200? Think you can't point me to some match grade ammo? I have some old dutch milsurp ammo that I would prefer to save. And i can get sellier and belliet but heard it's not the best.
I did decent at 50. I expect I'll be half as bad 100 and full bad at 200 lol.
What qualifies as other modern military?
Do people compete with things other than a garand? I have an 03a3 I picked up this weekend. Haven't fired it yet.
Sorry for all the questions and thanks again for your help.
Zero is probably the wrong term.
If you can get shots safely down range and on target.
For example
The targets we use are SR targets for 200 yard match
The black bulls eye is 13” and the 5 ring is IIRC 36”
100 yards is SR-1 target
6.35” aiming black
18” 5 ring.
In perspective 50 yards would br
3” black
9” 5 ring
Soooo if you can hit these targets 200 is the “same”
100 yard line is open during the match so it is possible to help you
Ammo: dont over think it 35 rounds and run the course. We are shooting at a 13” bulls eye
Keep all 30 shots in the black your shooting min of 270/300
Modern Military : pretty much anything thats not a Garand , Springfield or old bolt gun.
Small local matches like this. Bring what ever you want. Worse case is no trinkets if your gun is not match compliant. Still get to shoot.
Only thing with shooting a non compliant match gun is if a match is really busy you will shoot in later relays. But dont worry about that just come be safe and shoot , worry about details later.
