A few dozen pics I snapped at the RMAC in Utah

Steve & I met at the airport in SLC to share a rental car. Do we look happy to be there or what?!

I decided to bring my FX Impact .30 that I did a quick Cerakote job on.

Met an American legend, Jim Smith (they wrote the movie Blackhawk Down about him) he also gave us a long-range shooting seminar

Watched but didn't compete in the Big Bore challenge. They had steel set out to 300 yards placed up on the mountain side

The Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge was so much fun. The PRS (Precision Rifle Shooter) course was my favorite, followed by the Speed Skills Challenge, and finally the Benchrest. I'm happy to see more & more premier airgunning events pop up around the country. If ya missed out this year, ya bettah not next!



Cheers!

Great pictures Michael! Was fun seeing you and Steve there along with the rest of the guys. Your doing a great job with AGN. I can't say enough about what Justin and his Utah Airgun group did with the first RMAC. They did a PRIMER JOB. In a couple of years I bet this turns into one of the largest airgun computations in the US. The different events were a blast to shoot along with the old standards. Sylvan
 
Thanks for posting!



I found the posted "Wind drift target" to be of interest so I "hijacked" the pic using Linux Mint "screen shot" for my use. I have often claimed that wind in my face caused my pellets to "drop" and wind to my back caused my pellets to "rise", however I do almost all shooting sitting on a bucket while resting my .177 HW95 on cross sticks....now I have proof!
