Old girl did pretty good. 50 yards. First target Malaysian surplus 7.62x51 FMJ. This was the first 10 rounds. Second target was only 2 1/2", best my old eyes can do with these sights. IMI 7.62x51 FMJ. Had a flier of course. Lol   ------------- 14EH AIT Instructor-PATRIOT Fire Control Enhanced Operator/Maintainer |

| Good shooting. Handloads should tighten up the groups a bit. Get yourself some NRA SR-1 targets and enter our Virtual Match. |

Thanks! She needs a bit of windage adjustment to the right. Didn't have time to mess with it at the range yesterday. I was having too much fun shooting it anyways. lol I saved all the brass to reload for it at some point. I also have some match ammo I will try out next time too. Where do I enter the Virtual Match?

When reloading that stuff, make sure to neck size it. Like its 303B counterparts, the brass will rupture due to the generous chamber space it has. If you need once fired military brass, contact the fine folks at diamondkbrass.com
