This years first snowflakes and range trip 11/14/22

[USMC22]

Spotted this years first snowflakes on the way to the range. It never did warm up. First target was cold bore / cold shooter. Second target was a colder shooter. 50 Yards. Nothing special but check out the Kestrel. . . Showing transonic for the conditions.

Yes, we had some good snowing here in the Southern tier of Western NY on Sunday. I got a little shooting in on Saturday, in between raindrops.
It looks like you're being a little hard on yourself in scoring......

Was it you looking for a lefty 457, and did you find one finally?

I may be. It’s a trait I carried over. Something about falling to the level of training and not rising to the occasion. Lots of room for improvement, I noticed when analyzing the first target the 3rd Row, 2nd target in I marked a ‘6’ and its clearly a ‘5’. It was a good day though, made it to the range and with the new targets I’ve got a benchmark for the new rifle. This was first trip post zeroing.

This was my final 10 shot group, declared before shooting before resetting the zero stop on my scope:

Did you try and keep your ammo warm or did you just shoot it at outside temp?

I didn’t go out of my way to keep it warm. It was in a 1050 pelican case in the plastic trays they come with (pic of the case empty)

It sat on the shooting bench.
