The first thing I did was scrawl 'OOC' (Out of competition) across my scorecard which meant I was just shooting to be shooting. I had to get out of the house.
I had my service rifle with me along with my bolt gun and at the last minute grabbed the bolt gun for reasons I won't get into.
I used the slow offhand to tune the scope up a bit and got it dialed in and just played around with the rapids. I got three off on the first string and five off on the second string and did OK. I was waiting for slow prone.
Not only did I keep all of my rounds in the black, but I had no sevens and only a couple of eights, ending up with a 184/200 which ain't that bad and is pretty good when you figure the X-ring is 1.79 inches in diameter and the 8-ring is 7.79 inches in diameter at 200 yards.
That means I kept 20 consecutive shots inside 3.9 MOA and on top of that only had a couple of eights.
Considering my eyesight has gotten so bad that even through the scope I was holding on the center of a blur that ain't too bad.
I've got an eye appointment coming up and I think I'm going to go and get my eyes fixed and see what happens.
