This weekend the Wagga SSAA held the annual Barry Duncan memorial benchrest shoot. I took young Chappo out with his 6mmBR fly rifle for some much needed practice. Chappo277.5 has not shot a comp that does not allow spotter before.
Well the little shit outshot dad at 100m agging .5082 MOA for 5 x 5 shot groups with a tidy .257 MOA on one target and then agging .6312 MOA at 200m to win 1st place in the Junior category.
He is obviously very proud of himself but I'm just stoked as always.
Young chappo277.5 does well.

Well done Chappo277.5! Getting called a "little shit" for outdoing your old man is something to be proud of.

That would have been a lot of fun for both of you, mostly for junior!
