Hrm... would I be pissing into the wind with a 1903 that I've used to hit a 12" plate at 200yds fairly consistently off a front bag?

Yes and no...

 

To win or place high, you need to be able to hit a 3"x5" bullseye at 300 yds 19 or 20 times.

 

That said, this is a somewhat casual match and you will see all kinds of rifles and level of shooter. If anything, its a good day to just try out your 1903 at 300 yds.

 

Maybe we can have an NJ Gun Forum informal meet up at the same time? 8am coffee in the parking lot, lol...

That side charger AR would have worked.

Call me. and if you want to shoot my back up rifle.

Depends on my schedule, if I can clear the day I'll reach out to you Frank. Thanks.

So is this prone. And for corrections is from flags from the butts or can we have a spotting scope?

This is supported prone. The is a sight in period where a spotter can be used. Im bringing a spotter that we can share, if you want.

 

Once the match starts, no spotting scopes, etc. You have to spot your own hits.

Hope to see a few forum members on Sunday.  I'm driving a blue Infiniti 2dr coupe, have a tan/FDE rifle drag bag, shooting a custom 700 in a FDE McCree chassis and wear glasses, in case we happen to get squaded up...
