Wednesday isn't my *most favourite day of the week* however it's way better than Tuesday and massively better than Monday - It marks the downhill run to the weekend you see, and so deserves to be well thought of. The good thing about today, *this particular Wednesday*, is that I have Friday off and so this Wednesday is actually my *Thursday*, whilst still being Wednesday at the same time; It's a Thursday kind of Wednesday therefore. I spent the first part of today at the hospital but I don't want to talk about that just yet. I came home and after some work calls and emails decided it was time to get my *load out* squared away for the weekend -I'm shooting a two-day practical shooting event this weekend as I've written previously. The *load out*, the equipment I'll take, is quite basic for this event. It's a rimfire rifle competition so there's not a lot of technical gear required - Basically the firearm, spare magazines, ammunition and a shooting bag. Ok, a few more things that that, but not much. https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/galenkp/K06c4JRp-PA210006.JPG There's the rifle I'm shooting above, pictured just now in a corner of my back yard. It's the CZ 515 .22LR and so far it has proved to be a great rifle system. I've put countless rounds through it and am yet to have a magazine feed issue or jam-up which is unusual for most .22LR's. I'm running the Aimpoint 1:1 red dot scope on it which is great for *run and gun* stages but the 1:1 scope means there's no magnification so at longer range it's a liability. It's an ultra fast rifle to shoot though so what points I lose at long range, only a couple stages of the event, I'll gain on the closer-range *run and gun* stages through the time saving. (Scoring is done by dividing points by elapsed time to gain a hit-factor as the score, *comstock scoring* method, so faster times are rewarded.) You can see one of the magazines inserted and two more affixed to the barrel shroud; This is done for ease of access through the *run and gun* stages meaning I can drop the spent magazine, grab and insert the fresh one without fumbling through pockets...A good time-saver. You will probably note the pink rubber bands around the base of the magazines also; It's there for identification purposes and to make them easier to see once I've dropped them on the ground. This event is held in scrub-land, the outback, rather than on a developed range and so they can be hard to find. Just a little trick I picked up a while ago. https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/galenkp/j4Ka93l2-PA210002_LI.jpg Above is a shot of what I'll be seeing through the scope. The red dot is adjustable from 1 MOA down to almost nothing and the intensity diminishes as it's adjusted down also. For *run and gun* stages I'll shoot with the larger dot, full intensity and with both eyes open. It's a basic point and shoot scenario. Whatever the dot is sitting on is basically where the bullet will land. Of course, shooting skill comes into it, it's not a *laser-guided targeting system*. If the operator pulls the shot when triggering the bullet will stray. The red dot simply allows for fast target acquisition. This is similar to what military and law enforcement operators use in close-quarters, room-clearing and the like, although laser dots are utilised also. During the longer-range stages I'll drop the dot-size down to very small and shoot the best I can although I'll not excel due to the lack of magnification as mentioned. The smaller dot is required as the 1 MOA dot may totally obscure the target making aiming impossible. These stages will be shot using the bipod and shooting bag you see in the top image and in the prone position. Just a note on the target sizes...Most of the targets at long range are slightly larger although some are incredibly small. There will be a KYL rack stage (know your limits) with three racks set at 25m, 50m and 90m. Each rack has eight targets hanging on it with the largest being 20 centimetres in width (0.787 inches) and the smallest of 4mm in width (0.157 inches). That's very narrow, roughly the width of two matches. https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/galenkp/p6OdvCHT-20201021_130816201.jpg The KYL stage is designed to be diabolical for all the competitors and it's going to be a nightmare for me with no magnification; *At 90m I won't even be able to see the targets*. The 50m range will be fine generally, although still difficult. Essentially the shooters will have a time limit or two minutes to hit the targets in any order they like, but must only hit each target once. After two misses the stage will end whether there's remaining time or not. If you do the sums that 5 seconds per shot over the 24 targets which is not very much time. No one will *clean* this stage - It's designed that way. Anyway, that's about it for now. I've got my kit packed and am ready to roll on Friday; All I need to do is throw the guns in and leave. I say *guns* because I'm taking my shotgun for a little fun too. As one of the event-organisers I have to be there Friday to set up and I'll grab some photos and all for a post next week...After we set up on Friday we'll have a play with the shotguns shooting clays. For now I better get back to *pretending to work* for my day-job on this glorious Thursday kind of Wednesday. Later y'all. *** Design and create your ideal life, don't live it by default - *Tomorrow isn't promised.* Be well Discord: galenkp#9209

I'm sitting here trying to type with my first finger on my right hand extended-it's dammed awkward. I'd love to get my hands on that rig and punch a couple of rounds through it. I've only tried the laser dot system once, on a pellet pistol. I put maybe 50 through it and got reasonably comfortable with it. I'd really like to try it a little more. You know what's funny about what I typed above? Wrong hand. I'm left handed now and my muscle memory is still so strong that I imagined that gun in my right hand. Damn. 50 years (almost exactly). So how does the CZ eject? Does it spray right or back? That's really important to us left handed shooters. You haven't lived until you've had a few ejected cases melted to your cheek. I'm really hoping for you to have a huge fun weekend. Since my superpower is the ability to declare the weekend I say you call it started and you can bitch about having to work a day on the weekend (Thursday).

Hey mate, been a while. :) It's a side-rear ejector really, sort of sideways but slightly backwards and I doubt you'd get them in the face shooting lefty. It's a good little shooter and the weekend should be fun. I'm looking forward to it.

I used to practice with my old Savage .22LR by shooting at spent 12 gauge shells at 50 yards. With iron sights they were just a red blur that the front post mostly covered, I was never happy with my results. Does the red dot still do better than that at the longer ranges? I'm curious, what rounds are you going to be using for the event? Best of luck to you this weekend! I'm going to go try and sort out what day tomorrow is, it's still Tuesday and we're already talking about the weekend...

Shoot small, miss small. Mel Gibson's advice to his son in the Patriot. My Dad had that idea, too. I've targeted lots of shotgun shells. Cheap and plentiful.

Not bad advice at all. In my case it was my granny teaching me... Dad would just take us down to the Kentucky River when it was getting out of the banks to shoot 'plastic ducks.' The river would pick up tons of trash and carry it downstream, made for great practice with moving targets.

The red dot is probably better as one can drop it down in size, although the intensity goes with it. At 50m I was hitting the 4mm targets (54 yards) in practice a few weeks ago although I had the dot down to its smallest and it was very faint. On a very bright day it might not be possible to drop down that far. Still, on the run and gun stages I'm going to kick ass which will build points for a buffer because I'll lose points on the longer range stages. There's the rounds I'm using. They have worked really well so far and whilst the coating is bloody annoying they seem to cycle and feed well. ![FxX5caie56ynwsjysm2XuNozdMysq1YNDRbt9X9VeerNm1981Q9QbBM9uafCTypu7HDXKrjfzSLrGhE3e9HkhSntdvtXJEFWuxwVuG9nuYwY.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmdyTq6itMRZjf1yxiYCmJukz8jn2aHPpTb8JhvymVBW6m/FxX5caie56ynwsjysm2XuNozdMysq1YNDRbt9X9VeerNm1981Q9QbBM9uafCTypu7HDXKrjfzSLrGhE3e9HkhSntdvtXJEFWuxwVuG9nuYwY.jpg) Yeah, Tuesday there, 1420 Wednesday here...For me it's never too early to start talking about the weekend though. :)

Coating? Why do the rounds have a coating? If what I saw when I looked those up was correct, those are subsonics? I can understand why you're using subs, I just half expected yall to be running a really hot round instead. Run & gun sounds like a it'd be a blast, I'm going to have to find me one of those events around here. You a fan of the modern technique or more of a point shooting approach? Weekends are never bad to talk about, I just have enough trouble keeping straight what day it is even without the time difference making things more interesting.

Faith is the gardener in the household, I'm the heavy-lifter, but she does all the design and most of the work. This area is where our fire pit is and we have many good nights spent there around the fire, eating, listening to music and relaxing. It's a nice place to sit in the day and read whilst sipping cool drinks too as we have one of those massive shade umbrella things that pops up. She's done a good job with the area.

Sounds like great fun, but may have to be spray and pray at those long distance and no scope! My eyes don't work well with iron sights that far any more. That's gonna be the challenge for sure. Sounds like this would be one of those ideal scenario's for the scope on top and the 45 degree mount for the red dot.

Yes, the scope and the 45 degree dot is a perfect combination and one I have run on a couple guns. The thing is that this CZ 515 isn't mine, it's a mates and so I'm stuck with what he has on it for the weekend. I'll smash the comstock stages though, literally obliterate them, which should get some banker points for those I'll drop in the longer range ones. It'll be fun.

Red dots are very popular on rifles in the States. They're getting popular on handguns as well. Eotech holographic sights are reallllly cool too.

I have one on my race gun (handgun) and love it, although I don't shoot that gun much these days. They have their uses and once one is proficient they can be a lot of fun. I'm primarily a long range shooter and am a one eye shooter usually at range...It's sometimes difficult to do the two eyes open thing, but I practice a lot and am reasonably good at it. I like red dots generally...Expensive buggers though. (For a good one.)
