Default this week at the range

well it took a couple range trips but I am now comfortable with my sporter this was at 25 yards the vertical lines are 2 inches wide on the target and the orange cirle is 4 inch around. I fired 50 rounds.

Open sights? Red Dot? Scoped?

Just the regular sights that came on the sporter I haven't added any optics.

Good job, vertical strings that still give you hits are a great start.
Now back it out to 50m and slow the trigger down a bit.
Pretty soon you'll be hitting consistent at 100m with no problem!
I love it when someone uses their irons first, THEN mounts a red dot/scope, it's called marksmanship skills.
Carry on...

Thanks, that was my 3rd time firing the sporter. Unfortunately my ranges longest lane is 25yrds. I am going to try to get to an outdoor range but kids are still in school at the moment and it's about 3 hours round trip so would take up a whole saturday. Love my guns but love the kids more and family time comes first
