Beautiful morning and some good shooting. We had 3 shooters, 2 guns, 2 benches, 2 target stands. We basically did 2 relays.

First cards were 8mph L to R varying from 1:30 to 5:30. After that, the wind began to settle and shifted to a 3-5 mph headwind from 11:00 to 1:00.....then 3-5 mph tailwind for last card.

Mike Niksch USA Hybrid (1) 249 12x, (2) 250 15x, (3) 250 14x Total 749 41x

Ben Endreson USA Hybrid (1) 245 9x, (2) 243 7x, (3) 248 13x Total 736 29x

Ross Porteous USA Hybrid (1) 229 3x, (2) 238 0x, (3) 248 13x Total 715 16x

Both rifles were shooting sub 12FPE with JSB 8.44's. Ross and I kept our own rifles for each card, and Ben used mine on the 1st and 3rd.

Mike,
Not only do you build a damn nice rifle, it appears you know how to shoot it too! You just beat the LV and HV USARB outdoor records. Great shooting! Nice looking range too!

Mike, Ben and Ross,
Sure make me look bad. You all beat me and now I am in last place in the Hyrbid class! Lol.
Great scores by all!
Mike that 749 will be a record for a long time! And should be in the medals for BIPM!
Great looking range!
Loved the pictures and video!

Mike, are you sure you didn't swap your barrel with Dan's super barrel from my SUMO? Lol

Great shooting!

Thanks guys......I think everyone did great!

The range is the property of my friend Ross' father-in-law. He's a great guy, and hopefully will be joining us in future matches. It is referred to as "the boys club"....lol.

We're going to try to shoot there every Saturday morning. :)

HaHa......just a plain LW.......on both guns.

Wow Mike, great shooting at a great looking range. And hopefully your father-in-law will be able to join you in the near future.

Congratulations on establishing the new records for the Hybred Class (250-15x & 749-41x). They're both records that should stand for a very long time, or at least until your next match. :eek::eek::eek:

Mike,

Yes, I am eating lobster and blueberry pie but congratulations. Now, the whole world knows what those "electronic" air rifles will do. How about a little tidbit about your wind flags?
 
WoW, out of the country at the moment Mike, but that even looked good on my phone :) congratulations.
 
I want One!

What is the lead time? PM me the cost if you have established one.
