Another beautiful day in PA. Arrived at the range at 9 am and there was already a large team of people setting the animals. At Consolidated, they have the rather ingenious solution of both storing and transporting animals. Old converted dual axle horse trailers! Just drive a along the 5 rails for each animal and toss out the animals.
The 100m range is set up for both 1/5th and 1/2 scale animals in meters and they can put 5 x 4 or 20 people at a relay so there will be 3 relays. I guess I put that in for fellow match directors.
PCCLA will be shot in the AM. Phil and I are going to shoot rimfire for PCCLA. You will get a report on that in the next post if that decision was a good one or not. I simply don't shoot the 44 Rem Mag that much to feel as comfortable with it. My limitation.
Ron and Phil are both shooting well. Phil concluded the CCI Velocitor were not going to work for the PCCLA rams so....."Aim High" will be the mantra. The Browning BPR at 1,435 muzzle will hopefully buy me a few rams.
For CLA, Sierra bullets are working great. My lead killer Ram load is, well, not giving me full confidence so I am going to plan B. 21g of 4198 and not the 28g of 3031. Unclear at this point without real paper. They both seems to take down rams. Ron and Phil are taking the smart path of jacketed. And Al was most generous and treated the NH team to a brace of Sierra hats. We might not hit much but we sure look sharp! Thanks Al for helping us getting us into the modern world of jacketed bullets. Pro Hunters work great.
