300 Yard group shooting with time limit

[Entry Level]

I went to the range today to test 2 different loads for the Gibbs 03A4 and 2 different loads for the "T" Enfield. Gave myself a sighter to be sure I was on paper then 10 shots with 20 second limit for each. This is the time limit for the Vintage match. Since I was spotting myself I tried to hold the same to check group size. The black target is 18 inches which approximates the proper 300 yard target for the 8 ring, The orange paster is 3 inches square. The first target is a 155 grain Hornady FMJ in the Gibbs.The second is a 178 gr. Hornady AMax in the Gibbs. The 3rd is a 174 SMK in the Enfield and the 4th is a 180 grain spitzer in the Enfield. The x ring on the 300 yard target is 3 inches so if I can move the groups to center they could score well. Getting to the range was time well spent and seeing how well the rifles shot was a bonus. Next chance I get will be to move to 600 yards.
