For the first match of the 2017 season, we had 10 shooters and a bit of sunshine and also cold weather and rain. Nice to see some new and old faces. Welcome to Ed Kawasaki and welcome back to Tom. Theme for this match was Mosin Nagant, and it was well represented. I had an untested Finn straight stock 1941 M-39 rifle that was consistently throwing the first shot in every rapid fire string into the number board, yeah like 2.5' high. Tim had a first round squib that left so much gunk in his 91/30 chamber he wasn't able to continue, but a big thanks to him for staying and pulling for the second relay. Congrats to Allen Harper for having the high score with his M1A! In Pistol we had 5 shooters who stayed and were rewarded by pretty nice weather. Steve and Ed were neck and neck as were Allen and Curtis. My Austrian Rast and Gasser 1898 revolver shot really well.
Hope to see you next month for the 40 shot rifle and pistol match.
