Lini’s First Time Shooting the M1A Scout

I finally took my wife to the range on Saturday to shoot my M1A Scout rifle. It was a nice day at the range, clear skies with not too many people, which made it a perfect day for shooting. She's never shot a rifle before, so she didn't know what to expect from the M1a scout.

She did well. She was comfortable behind the rifle, she had good breathing technique, and a good trigger squeeze. She was aiming at the metal target which was 200 yards out, the size of a dinner plate and was barely missing it.

Not bad for her first time. The rifle scope wasn't zeroed and she had to use a little Kentucky windage. By the end of the day, she was able to load, charge and fire the M1A scout without any help. I recorded some video of us at the range. Notice how she is comfortable and holds a good firing position with the M1A rifle. Enjoy!
