The Muscle Power League - whats that then?

[zooma]

When I bought my s/h Centre on Monday I noticed the windage adjustment on the sights was loose and flopping about. A quick inspection showed that the small ball and spring weren't doing their job so I fitted a 'O' ring between the windage wheel and the sight body. This caused some friction and I havent noticed the sight moving but I havent put it through its paces fully yet.

Any tips for one with dog damage?....and the answer to your next question could be - a Bull Mastiff

New design of stippling,seemed to be the general consensus of opinion last night Bob

I was thinking more gun dog or springer!

Actually the rest of it looks pretty good - I have a new rear sight on its way as that did not escape as well as was first thought, but it should make a nice pistol - with a unique grip treatment to make it very distinctive ......and grippy...and something to get yer teeth into!

Despite a few of us scoring a little less than we did in Round One and also entering two more new shooters this time around our average score actually went UP a little bit higher in Round Two, so thanks to those that did improve we scored:-

Total Score 1531 divided by 11 shooters gives an average RMTC score of 139.18.

Last time in Round One we had 9 shooters with a total score of 1246 giving an average of 138.44.

Not sure how the Rivvy lads have done yet - but the RMTC average has crept UP a liitle bit - so well done to all those that made the effort and "had a go".

I did my little bit to help their nerves by practising with my tin whistle outside the 10 meter range door. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v4...Tinwhistle.jpg Always keen to help.

One of the Rivi members (no names to save his embarrassment) today decided to zero his new, to him, Original Model 6M. [and very nice it is too].
After a few shots taking very careful aim and looking through the spotting scope after each shot he ran out of adjustment on the sights! It was only then he realised he'd been looking at the card of the shooter in the next lane!!! You couldn't make it up could you? Thankfully Shaun Bell will be shooting for Rivi in the next round of the M.P.L.

Then their was one of the better shots who very kindly gave one of their lesser skilled pistol shooters some coaching. I was in the next lane chuckling away to pupil questions like "Do I open my eyes to shoot?"

Then they ask me "Why are you shooting for R.M.T.C.? "

We all eagerly await the Rivi results for this round.

Fire up the pot bellied stove for next months shoot

Is this a new tactic from our performance coach - I can't afford to lose too many more fingers Sir. (Grovel, grovel, touches forelock with respect )

[mrfixit]

145-134 is not the direction we want Mike,you have been warnedI will also be keeping my eye on you as we already have 1 permanent Spy,as well as another on a mission today,that sloped of on the quite when discovered

[mikec4]

Hang on a bit - TC1 invited him to the range - I'm innocent I tell you, honest.

[p.m.h]

The only way you could divide by 11 would be to remove one of the scores too. You couldn't just divide the same total by a lower number, this just wouldn't be cricket!

If you took off the lowest, then divided by 11, this would still be lower.

You could, however, put some practice in or apply to move closer.

Kind regards,

Even if you knock off your lowest score of 82 and then divide by 11 you average is still lower than RMTC's.

1589 - 82 = 1507.

1507 / 11 = 137

RMTC = 139.18

Granted it's an improvement on your lots round 1 scores of 131.18.

By my reckoning i make that a solid 2 - 0 to RMTC.

There's always next month though .

Edit: Nuts p.m.h beat me to it.
