A little range time yesterday. One of the LMI brought along his Rem. 700 and shot a 8/10″ five shot group at 300 yards. I was….humbled. My shooting at 300 yards was, sadly, not quite as good. A bit more than MOA. On the other hand we tossed a couple IDPA/IPSC type cardboard targets out there and they were an easy hit every time. I really need to get a better scope for my CZ…something with repeatable and discernable click adjustments, better optics and maybe a smidge more magnification. (Mr. 8/10″ was shooting a 14x Leupold.)

While at the range, an assortment of pepper poppers were set up and pretty much everyone shot best when using a Glock.

Theres a ‘Batteries Plus’ store not far from here. Im going to head over there and see if they have the suggested batteries from the previous couple of posts.
Off-topic, Commander, but there’s an excellent article in the latest Special Weapons for Law Enforcement about fine-tuning the FN. Guy says that you can squeeze out 0.5 MOA with a couple of minor mods. Reason I’m saying is that you’ve mentioned an interest.
Oh, and eveyone shoots best with a Glock. They may prefer a Sig. Or a Hi-Power (ahem). But they shoot best with a Glock.
Speaking of poppers, you might like this one. It’s for snipers, actually, but you can get flaps for .223/5.56mm that work for pistol. Just perfect for Mozambique. Shoot the chest, shoot the brain, then two hostage shots to reset. Reasonably priced, though out of my range.
