Well Mr. Wynne I think in the Nov. match about a third of the field in open was shooting the 7 Max and there were several 200’s shot with it, they proved its a winner for sure. I guess Us 6mm guys are no match for the Max. And “better run for the hills”

So Barry if I’m reading your post right you’re saying that your load development effected your score more than the mirage? And with a well tuned load the mirage should have little or no effect on your score?
And you didn’t shoot any proven loads during the match and your score reflected that. Just trying to learn about these things. -

I agree with the mirage but was it not as bad for the FTR guys or did they they do a better job adjusting for it than us open guys?

Looks like most of the open shooters the last target was there worst
mine was if you include the X count. But not so for the FTR guys

Mr. Wynne I know what you’re talking! After my first 2 sighter’s on the third were a 6 and a 7 I regrouped and started holding dead center best I could and dailed my settings instead of holding off and shot my best relay at 1k, maybe because of the results I may need to do that next match ha ha.

So both Richards on the three relay were viewing target 1 and both Richards shot a 197 on that relay and somebody else got the blame.
And it was figured out because this Richard’s sighters always looks like somebody cross fired. I’m sure it all had something todo with Surrell’s shirt.
Looking forward to more fun next month -
