AUGUST 26, 2017 - FLORENCEVILLE - CF BR AND PRONE - RESULTS

The afternoon weather, when we shot the centerfire match in Florenceville, was quite a bit different from the morning when we shot the 22 BR matches. The sun was out sporadically peeking out from dark clouds. We still did not have any rain - a good thing when you are lying in a field with no covered firing point. The wind continued quite strongly but was very consistently from 11:00 to 12:00 o'clock. Not much of a factor in our shoot compared to our rusty technique shooting MTR.
This match was shot on the 200m range with shooters choosing to shoot prone or off one of the benches. There were two prone shooters who shot 308s and 3 bench shooters who shot a 6.5mm and .223s. It was quite a handicap that we had a wind flag at about 150m but none closer to the targets so we didn't really know what the wind was doing in the open area closer to the targets.
The match Director for this match was Ash P. Ash P. and Bert deV. were the scorers. Everyone took turns walking to the targets to change them. Thirty shots were fired for score and unlimited sighters were allowed at the beginning (HPS = 300/30X). A front rest or bipod was allowed but no rear bag could be used.
