New Shooter

For those who don't know me (Most of you). My name is Kevin..AKA. New Shooter.
Well I shoot in Ohio. At the FSA range. It has a distances of 50, 100, 200, 300 yards. We do not have pits.
So today we shot a NMC at 200, 300 yards, with a reduced 600 yard target at 300.
I have been shooting a couple of years now. We only have maybe 6 matches per year.
Now today I shot a 443-5x!!!! This is great. I'm finally starting to get comfortable in all positions.
Because we don't have pits I can't see the target with my scope past the 200 yard marker, even then I can't always make all of them out. (I shoot an NM RRA AFor those who don't know me (Most of you). My name is Kevin..AKA. New Shooter.

Because whe don't have pits I can't see the target with my scope past the 200 yard marker even then I can't always make all of them out. (I shoot an NM RRA AR-15). So I missed a wind change on the reduced 600 yard target. It cost me a few points at least. But HELL I'm not complaining. I am up almost 20 points from my best score ever shot. I also was using Winchester 55gr ammo.
I am just now getting started in reloading.
Just thought I'd share with all of you. I always read your stories.
Thanks,
Kevin
See you at Perry!
