NMC League Week 30

Well we’re coming up on the 30th week since JimTMich started this. It’s been a great little taste of competition for those of us who chose to stay home this summer. As the colder season approaches our numbers seem to be dwindling. Maybe it’s time to hang it up for winter. I don’t have a good feel for this because I shoot at home and can do so whenever I choose.  I’m just guessing that many of you won’t have an indoor range available to you for the winter months. If I’m wrong, let me know. If there’s interest from three or four, I’ll keep it going.

My personal best!

*I am personally in favor of keeping it up now since I have found an indoor home and for the most part, hanging up my trap gun until Spring.  Indoor Bullseye and the trap league I shoot in are both on Tuesday evenings*

Hollywood Rifle and Pistol Club
25 yards
S&W Model 17-5 revolver

Slow Fire:  84, 3X
Timed Fire:   97, 3X
Rapid Fire:  91, 1X

Total:   272, 7X

(Rapid Fire score doesn't count, as the target would have been turned before I took the last shot.)
(Note to myself for slow fire, grip the gun tighter, so it's less likely to move as I shoot.)
(My precision increased considerably by following this advice:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lMYzJpD4n8 )

One more target to post.  I wondered how all this revolver shooting would affect my "real" shooting, with my High Standard X Series.  Before the rains washed me away, I got to shoot one B-16 target with the High Standard, using everything I had learned with the revolver, but sort of using "area aiming", while also sort of "aiming for the bullseye".  Here's the target.  

My plan is to put the revolver back in my safe, and just take it to the range to enjoy shooting it.  For Bullseye, I'll stick with the High Standard (or maybe the Nelson).

90   1X

Ok, finally getting back into the swing of things after recovering from knee surgery (and then blood clots, ugh). Been shooting a lot of air pistol, which has done wonders for my trigger control. Got in an NMC for both the 22 and 45:

All at 25 yards (B8, B16)

22: Matchguns MG2 Bullseye 6", AimPoint H1
SF 94-2x
TF 100-7x
RF 98-1x (yes, that's right, weird target)
NMC 292-9x

45: Rock River, AimPoint H1
SF 87- 1x
TF 99-6x
RF 99-5x
NMC 285-12x

That's a PR for the 45. Can't believe it came with an 87 in SF. Very happy with those scores. Looking forward to doing this in a match. Feel more confident than I've ever been.

Welcome back - that air pistol did wonders to keep you in shape!

Nice shooting!
