RE: Wisconsin Rapids mid-range match with my .44-77.
I have to say the same regarding tall stix and sitting up like that.
I was doing that during a time of shoulder surgeries , back issues and a hip replacement.
Very tough to hold on the center. Only one that I saw shoot really well from sitting/tall stix
was George Remington- at Lodi in one of the early matches there , he shot a 139/150 from 1000yds with his Roller.
I believe that 1k score for 15 shots still stands.
Saturday, I managed to shoot prone, but it is still a struggle. I have to arch my back occasionally
like a cat and have difficult getting up after each string.
So, like Jim said, Kurt- you continue to be an inspiration to us all. REALLY enjoy shooting with you.
Hang in there, friend.
Jim, you also are an inspiration in your concentration on working up into that 44-77. Shooting so well.
And Thanks to all who showed up and shot at our Wi Rapids match.
I look forward to running another one next year, whether or not, Lord Willing..., that I can still shoot.
OH, I think I learned what made my shooting go to pot on that last 600- greater and greater binding in my front
scope mount.
I hope that we can grow the match with more shooters.
Please pardon that we ran this non sanctioned match ( intentionally) in a rather casual manner.
Could call it a "squadded" practice...….
