first 40x40

[686]

My day was made Sunday at out SB match. My 13 yr old jr. grandson Dylan Grueber shot his first 40x40 USA SB . he had shot 38 the mo before and also a 38 in UAS BB that mo . We did not get to shoot bb this mo.because every one was out sick. maybe aug. as we are going to skip july because of the heat here in sw fl. Dylan and I were to go to the world chimpionship this mo but due to my cansor , could not drive and started full brain radition treatments today. we were going to shoot 4 sb and 4 bb each, and spott for each other.i had to pull out. i have gone down hill since 2013 world championship but i know Dylan could have made a good go of it in the jr class and in his reg classes. Dylan is now UAS SB AAA+ .way to go Dylan 40X40. we had to pull out today to give up our spots to some one else. at least i made one world championship 2013 att Ft Stockton hot and windy. for you new shooters there have fun , shoot your best, and try to have a spotter.

Excellent!!!!!!. I've been shooting Silhouette since 1984 and still haven't shot a 40x40. Which is my our fault though, I just don't get out to practice much. I did shot a 39x40 which moved me up to AAA class in IHMSA.

Congratulations! I still remember my first 40. There were a lot of them after that one, but then I started to get older and switched to all cast bullets, and they became much scarcer. I shot a 40 in unlimited BB at our state championship last month, but lost the shootoff by one target. Still made me feel pretty good.

IHMSA is different, to 200 meters. What is an UAS SB match? Not knocking the shooting at all, it is great but distance can change it
NRA silhouette is different too. What is a BB match?
I shot international class with every gun in IHMSA.

Give him an "Atta Boy" from me.


On second thought, make that from all of us here at castboolits!
