So, after two weeks of a hospital stay, I finally got a chance three days later to venture out on my own for a few hours. I only needed a few seconds to decide where to spend it-the range.
Although the day was pretty blustery with 15 mph winds, I was hopeful my new stainless steel, heavy barrel bmag would perform as well as it did at 100 yards as the first time I had shot it, 4 weeks earlier. Then, the first 100 rounds averaged just under 1 MOA with the 25 grain ammo. Today, I just brought one 50 count box and was only shooting to bring me a little confidence with my scope cam as an addition.
With 35 rounds under my belt, I then been switched on the scope cam to see if there would be an impact change from the first 35 rounds. I ended up being pretty happy with the results being negligable and measured 8 round groups from 1/2 MOA to 1-1/2MOA.
So, happy with my results, I packed up my rig and slowly started away from the shooting bench. I grabbed the black plastic foam filled case and spun around for the walkway to the parking lot. With myself in motion, I failed to realize the extent of my robotic like gate as a result of my surgery. It was awkward, labored and in hindsight now, dangerous in the right scenario.
As I spun and stepped forward, the rifle and case slipped from my hand. In a strange, slow motion scene like one would see in a movie, I stepped forward, tripping and fell squarely on the case with my knee hitting first. I was very surprised by the amount of flex that gave way within the case when my knee hit it. I tucked and rolled in an embarrassing move as if I was trying to put myself out from being on fire.
After collecting myself, my attention then went to the rifle in case. This is what I found after opening it. A cracked stock on both sides of the rifle just behind the trigger guard.
