Decided to make the trek out to 200 yds and set up a target. That's a standard 8.5x11 paper. Better than I thought I would be.

The breath control I actually have down fairly well because of work going from slinging some 300 lb man around and loading him into the ambulance, then needing to settle my breathing and hr down to be able to hear blood pressure 20 seconds later, with a stethoscope in your ears it's like in ear plugs wear your own breath sounds are amplified.

I plan to just keep on practicing at least every other weekend, if not every, just depends on how much ammo I can afford to pick up lol. The trigger I am still learning a bit, and I need to focus on my grip and support for better control of the rifle. Thank you for the words of encouragement. I really appreciate it

You can practice all that without firing a single round

What power scope and reticle does your optic have? What is the trigger weight set at?

Natural point of aim, sight alignment/sight picture, grip (to include placement of your finger on the trigger), controlling the press whether it's uninterrupted or interreupted and follow through.

It's a pretty involved and complex process just to put a hole where you want it.

So I had another Match yesterday. It's painfully obvious that I need to spend more time with a gun in my hand because I'm not going to show up and win if I don't. Took 4th and 5th overall in each.

Getting out there and doing it is what counts for me. I haven't even fired my mac90. Although I figured out what I want to try for a but stock and grip. Sometimes the thumb hole stock is doable but I can't get a good hold on this one so it's going into the box and an old bulgarian wood stock is going to be butchered and done up.

Mine doesn't have the accutrigger unfortunately so it's the factory trigger weight which is heavy, by my best research it's about 7-7.5lbs. I have found several guides on cutting the spring or getting a replacement from ace, looks like I can get down to about 3.5ish.

Optic is the included ine with the rifle which is a "bushnell" (I use quotes because their CS rep told me they are drop shipped from China to savage). It's a 3-9x40. Reticle is the one pictured below. I appreciate all of these tips guys I love shooting this rifle. It's fun to me to be accurate, the more accurate the better :)

Edit: forgot the damn pic
