Factory ammo (.30-06) and that group measures 1 and 1/8th inches, or under 1MOA! The target lasered at 168 yards from my firing position. The best part is I was using factory iron sights and shot standing up, offhand, no sling, and unsupported. Could I do it again? Probably not! That’s why it’s been displayed all these years. Submitted by Charles S. If you have ‘refrigerator art’ you want to share, email it to us.  Rifle Radio Stay Tuned!  Target Shooting Friday Night at Victor Elks? Elks does target practice on every Friday night starting at 600pm. .22LR only and if you don’t have one, contact them for a loaner. Remember, marksmanship is a perishable skill and requires constant practice!  Family Guns Read More  A New Feature – The TR Book Review To Sleep with Wicked Women  Meet Charles and Toby, two young men who wanted a piece of the Vietnam war. While their contemporaries were planning wild trips to Spring Break destinations, they chose to volunteer for Infantry OCS in the U.S. Army. As new officers, they experienced first -hand the rigors of training, the mind-numbing hours of boredom, and engaged in hilarious episodes followed by disciplinary actions.(“What were they going to do, send us to Vietnam?”) There was also combat. They learned to become leaders, trying to keep their men safe, while observing the incompetence and pettiness that occasionally permeated the chain of command. Note: The authors are donating 100% of their royalties to Teller Rifles! To Sleep with Wicked Women                   Opinion   The T R Marketplace is Growing!
