Where was the match at?

That's a fine score, about 732 points higher than all the people who didn't show up. Hope I'm still at it when I'm 72!

bragging a little here again... yesterday's directors match. 477/500. post cataract surgery. master classification just around the corner? at 73 it feels good to be able to not struggle with sight picture.
btw not with M1, but an AR 15

Not bragging if you're getting it done! I held HM cards in the past but now I can't even shoot prone, bad spine, and only 61.
Great shooting, keep it up!

474-10 today at our local range. glad it was only 50 rds. it was brutally hot. second master score in the last 2 matches. been stuck on expert forever. cataract surgery made the difference.
