Remington 07/15 Berthier and the Road to Camp Perry

[Culpeper]

It looked like it was going to be a nice afternoon without the Spring monsoons. Rain was supposed to blow in later on but it showed up early. Dang it. I shot ten from the bench just before the clouds started to get dark. Note the aiming point was at the bottom of the target. Wish I could shoot that well in the standing position. I know the answer to the pair of 7s. Me.

These were ten of the rebuilt factory ammo.

Looks like a 92-3X to me... a VERY good string of fire IMO!

Today's results were not pleasing to the eyes or comforting to the mind. Don't get me going on the soul. It was crushing, though.

More thought is needed and that taller front sight, too. I did have one ruptured case much like the initial two in February.

Now I've really done it. This road leads to madness. I took the Remington to a gun smith to have a new taller front sight blade put on the barrel. Should be a month. I also asked for a new ring to be installed on the barrel band. Some chuckle head cut off the original in the mists of time.

Alrighty. The Berthier is back from the mechanic's shop. I took her out early last week with #112 for aa shoot fest.

Hooboy is the sight tall. I forgot to bring my file to the range so nothing was changed that day. The aim point was again top center. Shots six and seven were just off the paper. I think the vertical stringing is all me since other photos showed the gun can shoot.
