range report 5/15/2011

Today was a lot of shooting in preparation for my first match coming up this Sunday. Have to admit I'm anxious, so I wanted to see what I could do today. Cleaned the Ruger very well hoping for fewer jams. Also brought several other kinds of ammo with me. Tried out some Winchester Super-X standard velocity and Federal Automatch. The Federal seemed to run pretty well with only one stove-pipe, while the Super-X had two. But the good thing was that I encountered no 'slam-jams' when I fully loaded 10 rounds. I did notice that the modified magazine that sits lower in the well occasionally missed picking up the first round. The other magazines ran fine.

Everything felt good today, I had a lot of confidence. I got a bit sore during the slow-fire sections but I'm shooting four targets in a row, which won't happen in a real match.
