July John C. Garand Match

I had a great match this weekend with my Garand. My best match yet with a final score of 230 1X!

My new Creedmoor jacket seemed to help, especially in prone. Off hand seemed much more stable however I struggled with my ear pro as my cheek weld was a bit off with the extra material in my shoulder. This cost me a couple (ok three) misses. However I seem to have gotten the hang of it and I’ll use my low profile ear pro at Camp Perry. Which is quickly approaching!

Creedmoor hardback is here!

After about three months I am now the proud owner of a creedmoor hardback. Just in time for camp perry.

I went with the cordura with ventilation and the all position upgrade. To accommodate my short little arms I had 3 inches taken off the sleeves which was the max they would do.

It is going to take some getting used to after so many matches in just a t-shirt. However, it should definitely help me raise my scores a bit, especially in off hand. The downside of course is I won’t be able to blame my equipment for my low scores as now I pretty much have everything I could get.

Just one more match at Kimberton this weekend before I take the drive to camp perry.
