Height over Bore - PCC

[CGoodwin]

So I just shot my second match in PCC. I shoot a B&T APC9 Pro SBR with a Trijicon MRO low mount using the ACR stock. Learned the height over bore lesson the hard way. 

 

I leaned left around a barrier, got a great sight picture on target 20 yards down range, and let three shots fly. I felt a little blow back around my support hand but kept rolling. After completing the string, I was shocked to hear three misses on that target. Went back and looked at the steel frame on the barrier and sure enough, three little dents right there.

 

So, shooting a 7 inch barrel compounded the issue, as I was able to get sight picture without actually having the barrel out from behind the barrier.

 

Luckily, I escaped with a terrible score and only a couple of little cuts in my hand. Could have been a lot worse!

I had that happen the first time I shot my SBR scorpion. I couldnt figure out why I was getting mikes. Then I realized my barrel was behind the barrel stack...

Got that t-shirt in my first 3 Gun match.  Launched three rounds through a wall before someone pointed out what I was doing.

I had a similar issue today. Shooting some paper about 10-15 yds out. But had to shoot over the top of some no shoots that were in my face. Made me nervous and I had to tippy toe to make sure I didnt hit the no shoots. I think I had way more room than i thought.
