my guess, officer firing rifle on far
Nice raised elbow on the BAR man.
The Juniors I work with are somewhat puzzled by the "chicken wing". They don't know what their missing not shooting wood guns.

Hello Mr Skeels
I see you are not that far from me
I'm just down the road a piece in Campobello SC
Yes shooting wood guns is fun
Yes, my son laughed at my "chicken wing". I then let him shoot my M17 unsupported and he found out real quick that his arm tuck method is highly uncomfortable and inaccurate. Good for a light M16 type but not a wood rifle He also wore "hush puppies" when he was in.Quote:

Best way to lock that elbow in place is to hold the rifle into your shoulder with the left hand, extend the right arm straight back shoulder high and palm up. Then rotate it over your head and grasp the pistol grip. It locks the bones in place, makes it easy to maintain... and makes a big difference in results.
You need to come up and shoot our vintage rifle match's. Starts in October, third Saturday.Quote:

If so that's about 20 miles from me an easy drive
If I have the time I would love to come up and shoot
I'm just a lousy shot cause I haven't the time to shoot the past couple years
Yes I do. We had a 800 ag High Power match today.
Our website is being rebuilt so info is inaccessible as far as I know.
The first two Saturdays are Junior practice, third is High Power. Come up and check it out.
Address is 1243 Little Mountain Rd, which is off of SC 14.

I will try and get there asap
I work a lot of Saturdays and I don't know which ones until Fridays
I don't have a M1 Garand but I do have a 1903 parts queen and an M1A
On your high power Saturdays can you bring an M1A or does it have to be a Garand
What about a 1903?
I will go check out the website
I haven't been there in a while
Thanks for the info
Frenchie
M1A would be best. Vintage match' don't start until October.
