And a few sighters shall be allowed as I realize the 100m ram setting, does not always work for pig or chickens at that distance.

Splain that one to me???

CK

The rams are about double the height of the pigs, there for inorder to hit the pigs in the center and not just graze the top you need a small windage adjustment. The only reason I mentioned sighters, is idk how the altitude or temps are gonna effect my POI. Kinda messed me up one morning in Jacksonville.

Oh...I guess I tend to oversimplify it....we just shoot at a spot....carry on

See, another example of the unfairness of life. You got Mini. I got Huey.

Sounds to me more like you've been plotting Bob ;)

Remember the charges are worse if I can prove it was premeditated! Cant a guy ever catch a break?

Yeah true....and I got to raise her and I guess you adopted BH, or he followed you home, or something like that......Sometimes life deals you a 21 sometimes a soft 16..

See that's what I'm talking about! Lots of shots below the waist! What hambone fails to relize is how long you have been working with kitty! CK, about how long have you been teaching kitty to shoot smallbore silhouette?

I bet it's more than 7months right?

[quoteCK, about how long have you been teaching kitty to shoot smallbore silhouette?][/quote]

I'll try to be brief and to the point....short answer is more that 7 months....Mini Kitty is a unique child in unique circumstances...She is my grandaughter and has been raised around the sport....this has been her choosing, not at my urging or demanding....Her mother (my oldest daughter) was a very good shooter but never traveled much..she eventually put the sport on hold to focus on marriage and raising kids (MK is the oldest ofour 5 grandchildren)..MK and I bonded from birth...for some unknown reason I have always been her favorite....so she chose to spend time with me....a lot of that time was spent at the range...she sat with her hearing protection on, painted targets and waited her turn....I coach young shooters and have coached other shooters to a very high level...Mallory had to wait until she was strong enough to hold the rifle in the proper position and hold...a lot of training a new shooter is simply not teaching any bad habits you will have to break later....she went to the gym and worked out to get strong enough to hold the rifle up properly....she acheived that milestone by May2009. She shot Winnsboro in June of that year and did well....She also shot the Nationals that year and did well.....The next year, 2010 she shot her way into master class in both rifles....from 1st match to Master was a little over a year....she is very coachable and has the advantage to travel and become friends with some of the best shooters in the world and has picked up a bit from all of them.....she also has the advantage to have been raised in a very positive environment where we teach that with hard work and determination you can accomplish anything you want to do...you just have to find a way to overcome any obstacles in your path....She has overcome some huge obstacles, some reading this know about them and would agree with me they were huge....MK has a fierce competitive spirit, she is a fighter with a killer instinct..She embraces a shootoff on the biggest stage possible...no fear, just pure enjoyment at the high level of competition. .She loves the sport and enjoys being an ambassador of goodwill in our sport and representing Lapua in a positive manner. So she has been around the sport most of her 12 years, but has been shooting only about 3 years on the "traveling circuit"...Hope this helps....Keep working in a positive manner and good things will happen to you.

Hope the good natured taunting doesn't get to you. This is a merciless bunch Look forward to meeting you in Ridgeway.

It is hard to beat someone born into a tradition! Besides the family support, though, MK has a generous dose of inborn resilience and enthusiasm that have attracted encouragement; lots of people are very, very proud of her.

Oh a few extra months of shooting will not make any difference in this match....Duct tape might help Hammy...and that will only get you 4 years of free food, and all the pcitures you ever wanted...
Now BH, sighter shots I'm ok with, spotters I'm ok with, 5 shots ok, pigs at ram distance ok...full view?

Innocent

Yeah....And besides...she's only 12....how tough could she be???....Innocent on the other hand, is well seasoned and tough as a boot....You better keep one eye on her if you get out in front...just sayin'

CK

Is Well seasoned politically correct CK? come on young man you are older than all your girls on TPK...infact the combined age of them might begin to catch up with you.
