Sounds like a Country and Western song
I took both of my Fulton Armory M1 Carbines to the range today 2018 purchase on the left, 2021 on the right. First up, the 2018 50 rounds 50 yards benched. I needed to tweak it a tad, it's been since 2020 since I shot this one. 2nd 50 rounds, last 15 freehand sitting. 3 o'clock 7 ring is where the guy next to me hits me with a stray case. Next up, the 2021 1st 35 rounds benched, last 15 sitting freehand. I swear there are 50 rounds in that target Last 50 rounds freehand sitting. I figure time to quit while I'm ahead and bring 150 rounds home for later in the week. I'm leaning toward using the 2021 as my "shooter" and the 2018 being the safe queenish one. Even though the rear sight on the 2021 is farther left than I think it should be for a new production gun it seems to shoot tighter groups. I'm thinking when warm weather gets back I'll either move my Ultimak rail guard from the current Carbine it's on or buying a 2nd one and rigging it up with it.

Great job Don. One probably shouldn't come prowling around your place at night!
Also, that's some beautiful wood on both those rifles, especially the newer one. John |

Tough choices…both look like they shoot well- but you are right the ‘21 gun shoots a tight group. Heading to the range Tuesday with daughter and Dad- can’t wait.

Have fun. I'm planning on heading up tomorrow and burning that 150 rounds up in this The Carbine with the rail on it. I took the quick release mount off last night to improve the sight picture and cheek weld, need to zero it again. That'll be my last trip till spring more than likely. I know I'll be working overtime after the 1st of the year so free time will be scarce. I also need to scale back shooting Carbines, getting down to SHTF stash ammo and I hate to use that and have to replace it until I get the extra OT money
