Guys,
Results are posted in the results section. Been a different sort of a start to the year here. We haven't had a wet season yet, might not get one either. Temps yesterday were around 36 at the range, with about 65% RH, so it was a pretty demanding day to shoot. Having said that, mirage wasn't too bad, however the switching tail winds were a challenge.
Well done Trevor A for a 4" LG group at 1000Yd.
Jeff

Hi Dave,
Yeah, Al's got his cruiser weight heavy going, but a bit of a struggle with vertical at the moment. Could be the weather, the rear rest, or the load, or all three, so he has some work to do there. I have gone down the 6mm TicTac path the TZ rustled up. Haven't got it tuned yet, but if I can, I will bring it to Narromine as a spare.
Al's daughter Sophie is talking about coming to Narromine if she can talk Dad into it, we could have a youth encouragement award and shoot off.
HG went ok, slight issue with excessive space in front of the belt, so I have put the other barrel in while I touch the chamber up.
