09:30 Hours - Truck loaded with all the stuff required to shoot our 3 targets; Pistol, Self Loading Rifle and Bolt Rifle.
10:15 Hours - Arriving at Charlie Elliot Wildlife Center south of Mansfield, GA. Setting out the ammo cans and making ready to shoot the High Power in the Pistol match. Notice my professional ammo container for the 9 mm FMJ's. Glad Ziplock, don't leave home without em!
The rifles I took for the rifle matches. Left is a Rock Island Arsenal WWII rebuild with HS barrel and Scant Grip Stock. Right is a Winchester receivered CMP rifle in a Red Birch stock. It is electro pencil engraved as having been rebuilt in 1968. The Springfield barrel is dated to that year. I think that's the year that Springfield arsenal was closed by the US Govenrment.
13:15 Hrs. - Moved my target backer and supports to 50 yards. Top row of 3 are two sighters and the far right is the official Bolt Rifle target. Bottom row of three bulls are two sighters and the far right bull is the May Self Loading Rifle target. I shot these prone.
14:00 Hrs. - My results. Haven't scored them but there they are. Ammo used was OJP Austrian head stamped M2 Ball from the 1960's.
