Well match 9 is in the books Saturday it was windy to say the least with a lot of big groups and low scores I shot my 300wsm using the old 220gr SMK I pointed them to make a little more stream line they shot well in the wind giving me 7.6 inch group 3rd smallest shot all day but only a 82 for score which hurt my score agg but the 7.6 helped my group agg.
Today conditions looked really good so I choose to shoot my One Dasher same gun I won with in match 8 went to shit in the sight in round and really die in the 10 shot record number 10 just cut the top of the target or it would have went over I would have DQ and been out of the 10 match all together. I am using a new 10x50x60 Sightron scope the first couple of shots on the sighting target went right into the 10 ring then I waited till I had one minute left to shoot I shot at one minute and then 30 seconds and then 15 sec. well at 0ne minute I went from the 10 ring down to the 5 ring at 30 seconds another went right with that shot and at 15 seconds the last shot came in only a little higher not good because there was no condition there to cause that so I was stuck with adjusting the scope well when I clicked up bad things started happening the gun shot vertical 17 inches no right or left and a 62 for score there were high scores shot on both sides of me and good groups so that really pissed me off.
I came home and cleaned the barrel and bore scoped it the barrel only has 300 rounds through it but about 2 inches ahead of the throat one of the lands had a big mark of carbon I was able to clean and JB the barrel but it looks like that land is starting come apart it only takes one land to wreck the jacket of a bullet I plan on loading the same load and test the gun again on Wed. its either the barrel or the new scope failed time will tell.
