Fresh back from his excellent performance at the Worlds, Peter decided to stop by (with a few of the other Canadian rascals) at Western Wayne and knock off a two-gun win before the season ends.
I will post the results later, but I would like to give a few highlights of some of the great shooting that occurred over the weekend.
First off at LV100, local shooter Lee Hachigian shot a great .096 on the his last target to win the LV100 agg. by .0002 over the second place finisher. At HV100, John Petteruti shot solid to take that yardage.
On Sunday at 200 yards it was the Peter Smith Show. Pete won the HV 200 stage in the morning and then proceeded to shoot a new range record .1648 at LV 200 to win that yardage, too. Peter also won the Heavy varmint grand and the two-gun.
And the highlight of Peter's day was to not only shoot a .196 at 200 yards in the afternoon, but he followed it up with a .143 on the next target! Two "ones" at 200 yards back-to-back. His .1648 agg. and the .143 are both new WWCCA range records.
It's always more the shooter than the equipment in these kinds of things. But, for those who follow the equipment side of the sport, Peter was using two BAT/Scovilles (a light and a heavy with barrel-snubbers on each) with Mac Lennon cut-rifle barrels chambered by Randy Johansen. He told me he was shooting 29.9 of 133 and never changed his load the entire day. He was also using Lowell Hottenstein's boattail 68's off his latest die and jackets.
I will post the results later.
Congratulations Peter on some great shooting.
