    Northern Rockies MG Shoot- my Bren

    Just got back from the Northern Rockies MG & Cannon Shoot in Casper, Wyoming.

    Took my all original Daimler '42 Mk II out to play, along with my PKM, MG-34, RPD, AUG, AK74, Galil SAR, M-249 and Mk I Ultimax 100.

    Pretty bad weather on Friday, LOTS of MUD, MUD, and more MUD, but beautiful weather on Saturday-Sunday, so had a great time as usual.

    I'm having trouble processing the video I took, so I'll have to post it up later. For now, a couple teaser pictures will have to do.

    I put about 1400 rds of new manufacture Privi PPU 174gr FMJ .303 Brit through the Bren, which all ran fine as expected. Gas port setting on 1 for that, which runs it nicely. Just FYI, I never gave it much thought till now, but when I was buying the PPU .303 I inadvertently grabbed three boxes of PPU 150gr soft-point .303 ammo, and just as a data point it fed, fired, and ran the gun just fine. I guess if all you can find is soft-point projos, you're not likely to have an issue from my experience it appears.....probably old news for many of you....

    We get to shoot all the way out there....well past 1800yds on the far side if you want, it's really neat to be able to crank the rear sight waaaaaaaay up and watch the bullet fall that far out......

    Anyway, a few pictures, then I'll add the videos when I get them done...
