    Default test fire

    Got a chance to take my SUB_MOA .270WSM out yestarday and take a few shots at 100 yards. My wifes due date was saturday it was nice of her to come along and let me run some copper downrange. Last time I went to site it in I was a little off on the last round so I made windage and elevation adjustments after I fired that last one and hoped it was close. It looks like it was.
    Didnt make any adjustments this time. The first round was the lower right hole I think it was more me than the gun. tried to relax and shoot it looks like it got a little better!! I used my lazer range finder the end of the barrel was within inchs of 100 yards from paper. After my little girl is born I'll be going out and practicing some more.

    Let us all know when she arrives. I am sure she will change your life even though she will have four big brothers to help look after her.

    Congratulations. Like any new baby, she'll delight in turning your life upside down. (Just wait until she hits her teens.) With four brothers, she's not going to be a delicate flower, and that's no bad thing. My three girls are all learned to shoot, but the youngest outshoots us all. I predict yours will take great joy in embarassing her brothers on the range. You have a few years to wait, though.
    If I can see it, I can hit it. Now, where did I put my glasses?
