Big Hill - Kurt - 06-22-2014
Well Big Hill is over. Great shoot where every shooter is a winner if they shot great or not. This is a shoot where you don't hear any grumbling how the match is run. Brian does a great job: high 5 Brian great job.
I shot good yesterday but ate humble stew today

This was a fine match but I am afraid I grumbled because I was truly humbled. Brian simply must do something about that wind! All that aside, thanks Brian for a great shoot. I'll be back if you'll have me.

Sorry for the delay. Hard to find a tree to plug the puter in.
I shot the .44-100 Rem. I have no excuses for what I shot Sunday, but I will say this; I shot up more rounds during the week and got into some of my rounds that are proven for long range and I had to use some different rounds I loaded for testing and I think I might have got them mixed with some of the high vertical I got. The 50 rounds I shot on Sat. where all the 82 gr 2F OE loads and they shot great but the loads of KIK and Swiss loads did not hold well. More testing needed for those.

Oh well, at least you were there and shot some good scores, and have learned a couple of tidbits for the future.

Sorry for the delayed reply Bob. Just found my way back home. I don't get along to well with the Wife's super texting phone
Bon I used the post front sigh because I just cant see through a round aperture anymore so I went back using a post with a 6 o-clock hold so the readings will be several points higher than using a center hold. I was holding on the very bottom of the Iron and even a little grass showing under the black target, but here are the settings.
500- 89
600-110
700-125
800-150
900-163
1026-187
