Trigger control .. Smooth , no anticipation even though 30.06 kicks like a mule. Great follow through.

First time, you say? Damn nice shootin' MSgt!

Alot of us could learn a thing or two from MSgt Watson. She exhibited both skill and persistence to turn in an excellent performance. I heard from another competitor this weekend that she was unable to lift her arm the next day. This is truly excellent shooting.

Juila has nerves of steel.

Is it common for service shooters to not wear protective eyewear? I'm very impressed with her abilities, but as a 4H shooting sports advisor, I'm very disappointed in the lack of personal protective equipmnet. I wish I could shoot near that well.

@winkienine Up to the individual. She's a pro with quite a record of achievement.

This 1903A3 was resurrected from a drill rifle receiver by a gun nut! He even found the extremely rare Marine Corps front sight cover that doubles as a hood. Very nice rifle and as you see, she shoots it really well. She was #2 overall at Camp Perry in the Springfield 1903 Match.

Great video indeed. I'd like to do something like this. Do you know if this an original 1903A3 or one of those Gibbs produced 1903s?
