First real actual benchrest run with the 52B! Shooting it legit for a score. Wind was gusting 6-8mph at half to quarter value. Temp was 77°F. We had multiple tornados pass through the area last night. So glad to get outside today.....especially when its not hot as balls.
Rifle was pretty badly off zero to the right initially. Not sure why. Was way right even though wind was pushing to the left. Spent 10 rounds on sighters and then ran the card right to left then left to right top to bottom. So you got 5 to right off sighter target #1....then one way left....then 4 on center.
Zig zagging towards the bottom. Even shot the sighter row along the bottom (I know they don't count). I was on a roll and didn't want ro stop.
The gun definitely prefers to be kept hot. Was struggling to keep the 5rnd mag loaded. I probably spent about 5min to shoot the whole scoring portion. You guys will have to tell me what you score this. I'm not sure what is a X based on the diagram....cutting the dot at all....or stamping it out entirely. Target #1, #18 and #19 were close. I could see someone saying #18 being out.
