Recently, the Rifleman came across this set of Rifle and Pistol quals. Naturally, this piqued my interest, so I decided to try them out. If you've read this blog, you saw where I passed the rifle and pistol portions with flying colors. But, what about the Designated Marksman qualification?
The course:
200 yards
Target = 8.5x11" paper.
10 out of 10 shots on paper
2 minute time limit.
Here goes!
Since the range I visited did not have a proper 200 yard range, I improvised. The location I shot from was over 250 yards away, so I don't think anyone will mind if I actually performed the task in a more difficult manner.
The 250+ yard range. Don't worry - the car was moved before the Rifleman took a shot.
I also decided to take the evaluation with my Aimpoint. No magnification. No scopes. Just me and my red dot. The results?
Well under 2 minites... and all 10 shots on paper!!
But, I do have an ACOG. And it is designed for just this sort of challenge...
22 seconds to put together this group. From a magazine support. With no bipod or other assistance.
So, again, passed with flying colors.
