1903 NM rifle at the range today.

[Ben]

My friend Jason loves shooting cast bullets out of his 1903 Springfield National Match rifle.

He was shooting today at 50 yards.

We had the tarp up to keep the sun off of us today.

Here is Jason's rifle :

Here is one of his groups.
He shot many that were this good or better.

I found that rifle at a local show and traded a run of the mill M1 for it. I have never regretted that one.

That's some fine iron sight shooting...peep or notch either way.
Fine old rifle too!
