|
I am finally a AAA class shooter in the 22 rimfire silhouette! I shot my second AA score Tuesday late afternoon. The temp was 90F with 1 to 3 mph winds gusting to 5mph. Perfect or near perfect whether for shooting.
Now I have to keep improving to make the master classification... It never stops, there is always room for personal improvement.
My goal has changed now. I made it into AAA so now the goal is to make master by the end of the year.

Thanks to each of you!
I have shot Hunters Pistol silhouette in my late twenties and back then you got AAA for shooting up to 40 of 40. I held the club record for the most 40/40 matches. I couldn't do that today, my eyes are not good enough. I will get to the Master level - no matter how long it takes.

PaulS, congrats. This is great! Can you post some pictures of the firearms you are using? .22s and squirrels have been my rimfire challenge of late!

Photobucket strikes again! RePete, I feel for you. PB has turned things upside down. They aren't letting this thing go and have the shields up. Requiring $400 a year to use your images on 3rd party sites.
