Scores for the 7/13/2019 CMP Vintage Bolt Match at MRPC

Congrats on the win, Lance. sorry I missed it.

Just realized there was not a single 1903 or 03A3 on the line. Almost as surprising as Robert's decision to bring the Jap rifle. Just when you think you have the world all figured out...

Will a mosin not even make the show either? Accurate enough? Just wondering.

I brought a 03a3 but I chose to shoot the Enfield instead. There was a mosin on the line for most of the match.

At some point, I'll start shooting my 03A3 but I haven't had time to work up a load for it yet.

Weather held out for us thank goodness and the temperature was right on. Had a good time, these bolt matches are just a blast!

Mosins are cumbersome on rapid reloads but can compete. I enjoy bringing them from time to time, especially the Finns.

All our 1903A3 boys were missing unfortunately. I didn’t even think about giving Michael a bump via PM or such unfortunately. I knew Shoe had to work and Gary couldn’t make it.

Mr McArthur showed up to shoot a pistol match that was canceled so he joined us with his AR. Glad to have him.

I’ve always got rifles to loan someone if needed, we just need to make sure the ammo is covered ahead of time. Mine is mostly handloads and I wouldn’t want somebody besides me using them.

Congratulations to L. Smith on the win. Good score. The weatherman fooled me again.

Keeping our shoes clean.:lol2:

I've definitely gotta practice more. That's pretty apparent.

Also have we heard how the guy with the M44 is doing?

I’ll let Squeezer jump in and give more details if he wants to share them but quick summary is he is good.

Congratulations on your win Lance. You bringing desert next match?

I'm doing well. My sister spent 5 hours on Sunday picking out brass bits from my hand. It doesn't hurt at all and the ER gave me antibiotics to prevent infection. An Xray showed a couple of fragments that were too deep to get with tweezers, and referred me to an orthopedic surgeon to get those fragments out. Thank you to everyone on Saturday, and an extra thanks to Bobby to taking me to the ER and staying with me.

Glad you're not hurt to bad..
So sounds like a kaboom? reloads? PICs of gun plz!!
