Rented some .380s at Bill's with the lady. We liked the Smith and Wesson Bodyguard over the Ruger LCP.

Picked up 80 rounds of 556 62 grain. Been trying to find some non 55 grain for my gun. I want to try some 75 grain even at some point. The 1:7 twist demands it!

Some late night ammo ordering.

Bought a few different kinds of match grade ammo, want to test higher grain counts got a few 69 and 75 ones.

I am ready to go shooting soon, who else is in :) Next weekend we should have a day!

I hope to go shooting this weekend at my parents' house, need to fix the extractor and hopefully the scope on my .308. Otherwise it's scope shopping time! I really don't understand why a good scope costs 10x as much as a cheap one, surely they can't cost that much more to make?

Murlo, what kind of ammo did you get? Once I get mine fixed I want to do a side by side comparison of my surplus 7.62 vs Federal match 168g vs Winchester match 168g. Funny thing is the federal and winchester both use the Sierra King bullet, just different casings/powder.

I bought some Winchester ranger match 69 grain stuff and Prvi Partizan 75 grain stuff.

We shall see how they do.

What does that stuff cost a round? I think my Winchester ranger match was about $1/each, kind of sucks.
Let us know how they do. Do you have a scope or anything (thought you gave GH his acog back), or iron sights? What range are you going to be shooting at?
