Shot my first rounds thru the howa 6.5 PRC and then went old school and put about 50 the M16 A3.

Finally picked up my new Springfield 2020 Waypoint this morning. I spent the better part of a year and a half trying to find a 308. Picked up a 6.5 CM a few months back and I was happy with it, but still really wanted a 308. When I found one a couple hours away, I snatched it up. Threw a Burris Veracity on top of it and headed to the range with the two Waypoints and my CMMG 6mm ARC. I got the 308 zeroed, and put fifteen to twenty rounds through the other two rifles. Man, I miss the days of plentiful ammo…

My son and I zeroed the laser on an M&P 45. He has some practice to do.
He would have put them all in a 16" circle though!

PTR-91 "classic GI" model (aka "PTR 100").
I'm 66 and have never had a scope on any gun.
Oh…..this exact GI model is Back In Stock at Atlantic Firearms.
Buds Guns has them, known also as the "PTR 100", but a few other retail dealers either were Not resupplied days ago, or already Sold Out.
These are the only sleek (non-railed), G3-profile version, and usually sell out before the modified versions which have the tough, welded rails. Be aware---

That's awesome, open sights only! How does that beauty shoot? I'm looking at one now.

Golfanaticshooter:
I can’t tell you exactly how accurate, but a friend who spotted for me saw the 300, then 400-yard Gongs move last week. I have no pretensions of trying to be anything remotely similar to a Chris Kyle etc.
On a different note, am really glad that I bought a big chunk of 308 ammo when it was .50/rd ( before charges).... two months ago. You know the current prices?
If you have the ammo factor covered and you enjoy HK ergos (I’m a lefty, and guns don't need to adjust to me), then you would probably enjoy them.
* I can describe a technique to better use the stock trigger, in a PM. Many people don't even bother to try.....they ship the trigger pack to Bill whoever.
A friend from Germany was unfamiliar (-personally-) with HKs, pulled on the stiff charging handle (without a comment), tried the so-so trigger, didn't have a single complaint.
He watched me shoot it then offered to buy it in case I ever want to sell it.

Had to take my CZ 452 Trainer with Leupold 3X out for a function check. I'd installed a Rifle Basix trigger because of the gritty take up in the stock trigger. The new trigger, after adjusting the weight and sear engagment, make this rifle a pleasure to shoot now. 10 shots at 50yds, on a CMP B-19 with a 7/8" X ring.

I was going to shoot my Henry Big Boy X today, but when I went to the gun closet to dig it out, I came across an unlabelled gun case that I didn't know what was in it - since I label all(?) my gun cases with their content firearm - and so I just had to open it to find out what was in there, and behold, there was my ZPAP AK in its new commie red furniture, and I just couldn't say no to such an obvious ploy by a firearm to get itself some range time. So that's what I shot today.

I'd buy one but then I'd need to buy a second gun safe. I have reached that point. Perhaps I should.

Light day today...
Shot my 16 inch .300 Blackout and got some nice groups. Had my P228 on the pistol range and it did what it always does...shoot reliably and accurately.

My shoulder hurts from firing a box of 8mm Mauser thru my 1944 German Mauser today along with my Swedish Mauser. Tried to take a few shots with my Mosin 91/30 but my shoulder was too sore from all the shooting before and last weekend. Thought I was used to real full size rifle cartridges but that 8x57 hurt a bit. Going to leave this German Mauser in the safe, the front bayonet band and barrel band wanna come off from the recoil after a few shots and I tried some steel cased ammo today. It locked the bolt up and when that was freed, the case was stuck in the chamber, so no more steel case. And I have like 100 rds of that. Sighted in my Sig AR @100 yards with the Bravo 3 3x optic. Coworker brought out his new Romanian PSL and other coworkers brought their ARs as well. We ended up being the only shooters there the last 2 hours

My new PTR-91 (HK-91 clone, .308), classic "GI" model. No rail (those are the GIR, A3S, A3SK etc).
My Czechpoint VZ-58 Sporter, with this same type of furniture. About 2,500 rds. with not even a Hint of any operating issue. .
No interchangeability with AK parts >> to the Disappointed hard-core AKM people with a hundred magazines << .... remember that AR-10 mags don't interchange with M1A-1 or FAL mags etc etc.
These sport shooters - Polenar Tactical- are in Slovenia - one of more than a few Euro countries which allow ARs, VZ-58s, HK-91s, AKMs....." But ..Europeans Can't Own guns ! !..??." Internet "wisdom"...............

Nothing. I had to work on my bush hog this morning. After I finished I was too tired to even think about going to the range. According to the weatherguy I don't need to put any thought into shooting for the next four days at least and I have a new rifle just itching to get to the range and show me what it can do.

Got a retro 25 round AR magazine from a member here so I did a test run in the S+W AR carbine.
Then back to cutting brush...

Took out my S&W 617 and Heritage Rough Rider today and fired 100 rounds from each. The 617 is my favorite gun and my target proved it again.
Shooting at 15 yards off hand I consistently kept all shots inside a 4 inch circle. I've played a little more with the trigger and it's now set at 7 pounds double action. It sets off all the ammo I've tried and I'm primarily using Federal BYOB bullets in it.
I also shot the Rough Rider at 15 yards. Groups weren't quite as good but I'm happy. I kept everything inside an 8 inch Shoot & See target. It's a blast to shoot. Never thought I wanted a single action revolver but for the $100 I paid for it I'm very happy.
