    I Won!

    I shot my first ever turkey shoot yesterday (first ever competition for that matter). I won a 5lb Bologna roll.

    I was using my SA MilSpec 1911 with a Lee TC 230gr. over 5gr. Bullseye.

    Came in second for the ham.

    Good job EMC45. I would rather eat the Bologna than a turkey any day.

    I won a turkey once. I was about 14 at the time. When they handed it to me, it blead all over my boots, my jeans, ( we called them Levi's) and my brand new Colt . 243 and my K6. Never entered another one.

    Much rather had a tube of bologna.

    This one is a paper target shoot. They go to the freezer and get your bounty after the match.

    Congrats on the win. Always nice to hear what mold and load was a winner too.
    Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.

    Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

    Shot 2 heats at today's turkey shoot. Didn't win. My work buddy won a turkey and a turkey breast. Another shooter there won both hams!
