Have had a problem with the eye relief on the scope I wanted to use on the Savage. Now all sorted and ready for the range - maybe a week on Sunday..............

I got the day wrong, the shoot was yesterday 15/4/2018, fortunately, I woke up before going to the range.
Sunny day, range 50 metres, aperture sight, gusty and strong wind (that's my excuse on the Fox :D :( )

Both shot without my specs :D now in my 85th year :!: :!:

There were six of us shooting Iron Sights and I came last, still, I'm quite happy to be last with a 95 score.

Participation is 100% enjoyment for me as I can just see well enough to make sure I am shooting on my own target :loco: :loco:
