Holy crap!!! Watched some YouTube videos of the vintage rifle/sniper matches at Camp Perry how the heck do you keep your target straight and not crossfire ??

<blockquote>Oh, I forgot to mention... The Roosevelt Match has just one squadding, which is Friday morning (the 31st) on the Viale Range.<br /><br />I DO hope you join us Griff. </blockquote><br /><br />Thanks for some of the clarification and offer to join you. I would love to give it a whirl but a...

Thanks-I was rather surprised considering the sight picture. The rifle has been consistently shooting about MOA at both 100 and 200 yards so now it comes down to the nut behind the butt

Took the Krag out to 300yds today. Only shot a 5rd group today-didnt want to ruin it with 10rds. Tried using a 6:00 hold as best as I could see-I dont have a regulation 300yd target and my spotting scope could see the holes without a shoot and see target. 168gr Hornadys 36.5grs 4895 shot off a front...
