Yesterday I shot my first high power match and really had fun doing it. It was held at my 'local' range (1 houir drive) on only the 100 yard line since that is all we have for rifle. I used a loaner M1 and shot a score of 556-2x, which was a little better than I expected with only 4 m's!

Now for the questions:
1) are the DCM/CMP rifles worth buying
2) where is the best website selling gear such as shooting mats and spotting scope stands
3) any other advice for a new match shooter ( I have been a shooter for most of my life and have also shot pin shoots)

TIA
