DT10 and TRG22, .....and the Weather Was Grand!

Well,
I got to Houston late last night, and today I went to American Shooting Center to shoot a bit. Head Honcho and good friend,  Ed Arrighi, who is shooting the National FITASC also, joined me for a couple of hundred practice targets. We had a great time, working out the kinks and "getting our confidence on". With plenty of daylight left, I headed to the longrange rifle area and broke out the Sako TRG. I have been looking forward to shooting on ASC's range out to 600 yards, and getting firm zero's, or "come up's" out to 600 yrds. That is now accomplished, and the 12" steel plate @ 600 yards was ringing for quite awhile!

I had soooo much fun @ ASC, I'm going back tomorrow!

Best,

Will

Boringly accurate rifle.....the TRG-22

Folks,
I mentioned earlier that this Blog wasn't going to be just sporting clays. Well, I really enjoy rifles and handguns also. The more serious my shotgun competition has become, the more I enjoy range time with precision rifles and custom handguns. Here is one I have been really enjoying getting to know lately.....the SAKO TRG-22.

Tim Hasting, a good friend and student, has gotten me excited about long range precision rifle shooting. Tim is a long time 'sniper comp' competitor. Hearing his stories, and playing with his rifles got me really fired up to try my hand at this type of shooting. I got in touch with my friends at Beretta, and arranged to demo a TRG. So far, I'm just getting my gear set up, and loads developed, but I hope that next year, I get to go out west with Tim and train at longer ranges in field conditions.

Here is a pic with a 10 shot, 100 yard group....

Best,

Will
