Records to many are a non issue. It is winning a 2 Gun of some sort that matters. That tells you and everyone else that your average for the entire weekend bettered all other competitors.

At this years WBC 11 in France there were 10 new WBSF Records set.

Here is a run down for those interested. I am not sure how much weight gets put on these as depending wehre the World's are held the matches are either shot at 100m or 100y.

I heard it was a VERY TOUGH range to shoot yet 10 new records were set. Shots appeared to fly off with no ryme or reason................. I should also mention that I just used an on-line length converter for the mm to inch conversions so there will be slight differences. If I knew the formula that is used to convert I would go that route.

Just realized the discrepency. The non metric figures on the world site are in MOA. I just converted the mm to inches and left it at that.

Correction required

Steve Williams is NOT from Russia but from South Africa.

Not only were the records broken by the new record holder, but in some instances the records were broken by the top 3 placed shooters or in the case of small group the new record didn't last the whole day before being broken.
