zini 1,939 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Great shooting Si , Keep up the great work with the videos! i always look forward to them. Im looking forward to getting back to the competition shooting at Bisley (for the RAF though, Yes we shoot too ) I missed the shoot vs the Army and Navy last year as i was in the sunny (or not so) Falklands ATB A Some good shots in the RAF mate . When I shot at a higher level for the military some years back I shot against many good marksman from the RAF. I always found the chefs, clerks and the Gurkha's were the best though. I think they had the most time to train. Si. Quote Link to post

zini 1,939 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 It was 49mm 10 shot group Scramble. Its nothing brilliant at 102 metres and Ive shot much smaller groups in the past but considering the intermittent winds we were competing with and I wasn't using a bipod like some it was good enough for me on the day. I didn't get it actually on the zero part of the day. I got it on one of the practices. There was a female soldier who scored a 37mm group size with 5 shots which was really good I thought but she was using a LSW and bipod so a good score should be expected. She scored 1373 points overall though which wasn't so good especially as she was injured and could only shoot from the prone position for every practice and not the prone, standing, kneeling / sitting and trench shoot like everyone else did. Oh and why all the ?????? mate? Si. Nice shooting zini the smallest 5 round group ive seen from an SA80 @ 100m was 19mm not sure why i put so many ?????? Scramble. 19mm for 5 shots is good. Most groups now though we shoot are either 3 or 4 sets of 5 shots or a 10 shot group. I shot a 25mm 5 shot group last year in Canada when checking a soldiers weapon for him while on range staff there for 6 months. I was using a iron sight though so was really happy with that. Si.

Si. thats some good shooting Si the guy who shot the 19mm group was also using iron sights which made it even more special as you say. i think 10 shots for a group is a much better indicator for good shooting as any bad hold/position will show over the longer shooting period.

Too much net porn, his keys are a tad sticky :laugh: nah it was the pic of you cuddling that lovely S200 You should see her in the new all in one she's wearing these days, propper figure hugger and far sexier than that bikini she used to wear :laugh: It's good to find someone else here lately that shares my sense of humour Tony Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 True Scramble, That's why when I do my clips on YouTube I 90 % of the time at 30 metres - ish do 10 shot and 14 shot groups. A 1 holer with 5 shots is pretty simple, a 1 holer with 10 shots is much harder to achieve especially outside in the elements. Si. Quote Link to post
