I don't see how. I wasn't that impressed with my targets. I think I need to have a personal match with VV and Benchmark. The smallest group I've shot was with Benchmark and I decided to go with Viht. Go figure. :shrug: I'll have it figured out by the next match.

i to swapped loads for the match
i shot the 39 bk over 10x with my cooper because i did not have any 35 bergers loaded to a longer coal
then shot the 35 berger with my lrpv instead of the 39 bk because i fire lapped the bbl (it was and still is a copper magnet) and did not have a chance to rework my load
the second group with the lrpv i tried just cleaning while with out removing the copper and got a group 5 wide horizontal across the postal target bad choice i should tried this on a different target
group three with the lrpv really opened up and and when checking everything out found twenty five 35 bergers loaded to a longer coal :wall: i dont know if it would have made a differnce with the cooper because i suspect a loose scope base because poa to poi kept changing
but the next postal match i will try to be better prepared

Thanks wrzwaldo for your time and effort on puttin this together
If not for my forgetful nature remembering things would be no problem at all.

Well I feel compelled to share these six groups (two targets).

I know that one of the shooters is not happy with the groups, but folks this is some serious consistency across the board!

Where do you fall in the world standings?


I plan on posting our results November 1st. If all targets are back and scored sooner I'll post the results sooner.

If you are not going to return targets please send me a PM so I can remove you from the wait list.


Thanks

WW

I'm all caught up...

Here's my target. 3 shots stacked on top of each other and two fliers! At least I was consistent.

I'm ready for the next one! I wonder if enough of our shooters have 200 yard ranges available to try the longer range.

wrzwaldo-
I have a question. Did the rules change to put me in the factory custom class or am I in the custom class. I use a Savage action with a pacnor barrel. The rules originally said that would be the custom class but I saw a post later that said I would be in the factory custom class. In checking the lists, I don't see myself included in either, but I am on the equipment list. I'm ok with it either way.

Are you tired of scoring targets yet?

Ray,

I have 2 targets from you, Factory Rifle and Custom Rifle. Looks like the list needs to be updated.

Wow that is sure a surprise! It was great to see that you were putting all the leg work into getting this postal shoot not only going but also scoring them targets and now I find out that you have managed to round up all these prizes! That is just awesome, and I do not mean the prizes, I mean you are one of those special people in the world just trying to do what is right and in the process improving everyone elses lives around you all the while not asking for anything in return.

I have said this before, thanks for doing all you do for us guys in this forum. I enjoy it so much that I log on daily just to see what I can learn.
