    Ashburton opening day

    It was the opening day for the season at the Ashburton range today.

    Interesting to see electronic scoring in action. It certainly makes for quicker shooting as targets don't have to be lowered and raised between shots.

    Below is the first detail from a Savage 223 firing 80grain Amax projectiles with 24 grain of 2208 in new norma cases at 300 yards.
    This was the first full detail on the mound for this rifle. Score 49.6 (the first 3 was not counted).

    The latest shot is marked in red.
