Sniper rifle weekend was created by That_Guy

Been a long time since I have posted! Been way too busy to sit around inside all day, but I've got some downtime to share what I did this weekend. As many of you know, I'm a sniper rifle fanatic. My girlfriend came over this weekend and wanted me to teach her how to shoot. How can I say no to that?












So, I broke out the trio and walked her to my 320 yard range. The target was a to scale AR500 head silhouette. I got her on target, and she managed to hit it 2 out of the 4 times she shot. She then wanted me to get behind the rifle so she could video me



After she shot, I'm guessing the round impacts loosened a bolt that held the chain on the right side of the target. After my first shot, the bolt came the rest of the way out, and caused it to drop and start to swing. Managed to hit it on the second shot while it was swinging but I'm gonna chalk it up to luck haha

I hope she starts to feel a little more comfortable around rifles. But, I will admit the muzzle blast from the .300wm could be scary to a new shooter. She didn't like the force of the gas shooting back at her at all.

Anyway, thought I'd share, enjoy!

Got a video of a 3 round group and a melon shot at my range. I videoed it once before with a watermelon (way more spectacular) but my recording device died :( so I did it all over again.
