Ballards may be weaker,

I remembered to bring some .22 ammo today.  As I predicted and the cold wet front approached the morning winds were quite squirrely.  I tried various types of ammo and bag positions and eventually put the original front forearm on.  At that point it began to group better.  I shot this group as the winds became a bit more predictable and went on to shoot a 245 5x.  I think it is a keeper. Some more practice to do but I am happy.

Too bad you forgot your ammo Saturday.  You might very well have had a 250 inaugural
match.

If I would have had a 250 then I would have nothing to look forward to.  I probably would have to sell it and start over with another rifle.   Grin

I knowhow that works.  Lots of times my first sighted in offhand is a 24 or 25.  I know I probably will not keep shooting them.  Had to look forward to reality.  Cry
