Went to the range with my new rifle. At 100 yards, I'm putting rounds into about a 6-inch circle. I am officially ready for the upcoming revolution (or the approaching 2012 asteroid - whichever comes first).

That's not going to be much good against the fast moving asteroid now is it John - I'm glad I'm not relying on you to save planet Earth. If you could do this as 100,000,000 miles that would be a more practical solution.

I used to get a 4inch group at 100 yards with a Lee Enfield mk4 .303 with peep sights. Now thats a 50 year old bolt action, 100 yards, on open sights. :)

Well, being just 42, I'm able to place the five bullets inside the 3" area. Unfortunately that wastes the other 30 million bullets of my random-shooting rifle. :rolleyes:

If you are a thief planning to burgle John's house, you now know you need to get to 100 yards from his house after making this daring robbery. If a stray bullet still doesnt hit you, you will be lucky. All the best!

I don't think it's all that bad given the weather conditions - 100 degrees, about 80% humidity, and windy - and the fact that's it's a brand new weapon (that is most definitely not a target rifle) that hasn't been broken in yet, and I was using bulk ammo. Besides that, I'm using iron sights with 55-year old eyes, and was shooting offhand (I can barely even see the bullseye at that distance). I think a 6-inch circle at 100 yards is damn respectable.

I bet they don't have a bunch of 55-year olds qualifying for marksmanship either. I don't think I'd even be able to SEE the target at 300 yards without a scope. The freakin 9 ring is a 3-inch circle and I can barely make that out at 100 yards.

Nah, walking 280 yards and then shooting is not an option for John. :rolleyes:

I was a machinegunner in the Swedish army. And we had admittedly lower standards. 100 yards and 6" would have been quite acceptable - on full automatic fire.

Well, I figure it'll be coming right at us. If I can see it, I can shoot it. Granted, it probably won't do any good, but I'll go down trying instead of pissing myself and crying out about how unfair life is.

Actually, the chances are pretty good that you won't make it out of the house, but if you do somehow manage to make it off my property, you're free to go and consider yourself lucky enough to have a good chance at winning the next lottery drawing, so buy a ticket. For those that are saying a 6-inch circle at 100 yards ain't that great, consider that if I'm aiming at center mass on a human target, a 6-inch circle is still gonna be a hit. That's "good enough" in my book. The REAL trick is hitting a moving target.
