More like lumbering and gunning in my case... LOL
This was a 2-gun (rifle/pistol) match put on by the UDPL and was a lot of fun. The HRA M1 ran flawlessly all day, with HXP as well as my Nosler CC 168 reloads. Dan Wesson Heritage 1911 ran perfectly also. There were a couple surprises for this match; shooting clay pigeons hanging off a string was a new challenge, as was shooting through a tire (not through the rubber, just through the opening).
I got most of my M1 loads done fairly efficiently, though once I started getting really tired after 8 hours of running around in the sun, taping targets, resetting steel, picking up brass, etc. I started fumbling them a little. I had planned on shooting a 1903 but I couldn't find my stripper clips in time... it was probably for the best because I was slow enough with the Garand.
