Well, it has been fun, but I wanna track my own progress with this amazing rifle. This is the reason I have decided to create this post.

Target Info:
I used to have 18"x12" commercial targets to do mag dumping. Mehh...too expensive. Now, I have started to print my own on a US letter size paper (8.5"x11")
I used this site to try out a few different designs. http://printtargets.net/ Hopefully, I will find something better for my needs soon.

Here are more details about the targets I used on 2020/07/27.

I didn't count how many I shot per target today. There were probably 5~7 per target today. Starting tomorrow, I will just keep 5 shots per target.

75 Yards:

100 Yards:

Comments: I really took my time and had tons of chitchat with ROs in between each break.

I couldn't see any POI from 100 yards away with my 20 bucks walmart binoculars. The background was just too bright in the sun. LOL

I used the same style of the targets for 75 yards again today, but I did a bit differently with the 100 yards. I added more solid background colors and tested a few combinations, since it was pretty bright during the day and POI was hardly visible with the white background. I have learned my lesson from the day before. Haha...

Here are more details about the new targets I used today.

Comments: Overall, I performed a bit worse than the day before. I finished all 30 rounds within 1 hour including the time of walking down the range and putting on my targets in the blazing sun. Aha, I got it, maybe my today's poor performance is due to not enough chitchat/break in between? Haha...
