I heard we had some members with some pretty respectable finishes. I've not found them yet.

Is there a sheet that tells what equipment was being used and where the shooters were from... Also what the conditions were ? Temp and average wind?

Hot and windy is right!
Yesterday afternoon it was 98 F and we were holding wind for 18-25 mph.
Today it was 93F and we were holding wind for 8-15 mph.
As shooters get better, they keep making targets smaller. Stupid tiny targets this year.

I'm on the list. I had a mental implosion on Saturday. I had 2 stages where my firing pin was not working, and would pull the trigger and "click". It took 3 stages to get it working right and figure out the problem. Sunday I shot pretty good. But you can not make up a 2 day match in one day, though. Wind was blowing, as well as vertical lift. The hills were causing some vertical movement at several locations. I need to work on the loop hole shot. I should have gotten those points, as I have shot it in the past and it work. The loop hole shot is a cut in a ply wood of about 3/4". You line up behind this ply wood and you have to shoot through the 3/4" cut and hit a 700 yard target. If you do the math correct, you should be able to get the bullet to go through it, and make your hits. It was a great match with a lot of small targets at some long ranges. I did make a hit on the far one at 1294 yards, though!

A few stages crushed me, I did fair on some, and I rocked on some. Yesterday on the J. Enterprises Troop was the funniest trash talk I did. 94 F, wind 10-15 mph, maybe 1 1/2 MOA targets. 2 points for a first round hit, 1 point for a second. Targets 2 o'clock to 10 o'clock 226 yards- Impact..impact 389 yards- Impact...impact 588 yards Impact...impact 819 yards miss (but I saw it splash)...impact 1008 yards Impact, cycled, held the same wind (2.4 mil) miss Lost of guys were getting killed on it right before me so I was super happy even if I didn't clean it. Range Officers said "dang that was a good run". I dropped my mag, grabbed my empty cases, stood up two fists in the air "I'M RICK JAMES BI**CH!" R.O.s busted up laughing. 12 points Guy I was squadded with from New Mexico was MOA and we were gigging each other all day. He said "how many did you hit?" I said I don't know, a lot. He ran the stage while I was squaring away for the next stage. I asked him how he did and he got 8 points. I said "see, if you were using Mils you would've got 12 points like me"

man that sounds like a lot of fun. I will definitely be working to go next year. I'm trying to figure out what gear I'm going to need and start practicing with that gear.
