–Four shots at 1.4-inches with Remington Core-Lokt and its 150-grain soft-point bullet Ammunition and firing the Model 336 from a rest. Still, I was able to shoot three- and four-shot groups right around 2.0-inches, and a few better, with different brands of. I’ve “tapped” off such items before and scratched up firearms in the process, and I didn’t want to risk damaging this rifle. But the 336 Classic was a test rifle, not my rifle. The front sight hood will tap off, and maybe I should’ve done that to see if my sight picture would have improved. The semi-buckhorn rear sight, I felt, would have benefitted from a deeper, slightly wider U-shaped notch, too. The hooded front post made it difficult for me to see the front post’s brass bead. Truthfully, the sights didn’t match up very well with my eyes, which, admittedly are 63 years old and require help in the form of glasses. Hooded brass bead pops nicely in this photo, but McCombie had trouble locating it at the range.Īt my outdoor range, I shot the 336 Classic with open sights first. A soft rubber butt pad helped displace the already-manageable. The receiver and barrel were blued with a satin finish. The 20.25-inch barrel was cold hammer-forged. The receiver, lever, and trigger guard plate on the 336 Classic were all CNC machined from alloy steel forgings. I loved the way it looked and felt right out of the box: the solid wood, the nice balance and the just-right weight. UE dropped to 0-9.I was fortunate enough to receive one of the first-run Model 336 Classics. KC Cepada and Van Bangayan again led UE with 12 and 11 points, respectively, while Ja Lana added 10 points. Nine of 11 UST non-libero players coach Kungfy Reyes fielded scored at least two points with middle blockers Imee Hernandez and Pia Abbu contributing eight and seven points, respectively. She had 17 points on 15 attacks, a block and an ace. University of Santo Tomas (UST), meanwhile, sent University of the East to the brink of elimination, 25-17, 25-16, 25-17, also on Wednesday.Įya Laure lifted the Golden Tigresses to their sixth victory in nine matches in a tie with NU. The Lady Tamaraws slipped to 4-5 won-lost at fifth place, only half a game ahead of Ateneo de Manila University.Ĭhenie Tagaod delivered 13 points and Alyzza Devosora got 10 points for FEU, which drew a good impression from Shiela Kiseo as a libero with 15 excellent receptions and nine digs. Thea Gagate added 11 points while Jyne Soreño stepped up with eight points for opposite spiker Leila Cruz, who suffered an ACL injury in her right knee in their previous game against National University (NU). “I needed to remind the girls to execute what we do in practice.”Ĭanino was spectacular with 16 points, 15 excellent receptions and 14 digs, while De la Cruz had 13 points and 14 digs. “We were flat in the first set,” Lady Spikers assistant coach Noel Orcullo said. It took a Jolina Dela Cruz crosscourt shot and a Jovelyn Fernandez attack error for FEU to hand the win to De La Salle. The second set was lopsided but the Lady Tamaraws weren’t a team that rolls over and dies. The Lady Spikers needed to toil against the upset-hungry Lady Tamaraws in notching their ninth straight victory for a guaranteed playoff for a Final Four berth.įEU was a tough customer in the first set that went beyond regulation play with Angel Canino scoring on back-to-back hits for a 30-28 set victory for De La Salle. DE LA SALLE University kept its poise against a tough challenge from Far Eastern University (FEU) which forced two nerve-wracking sets before yielding to the unbeaten Lady Spikers, 30-28, 25-12, 28-26, to in University Athletic Association of the Philippines Season 85 women’s volleyball action Wednesday at the Mall of Asia Arena.
