2A Georgia:
Scott,
Thank you for organizing the informal match. It has put my habits under the microscope and given me a long list of things to work on. I have now shot 4 "warm up" charts and have nothing I want to enter yet.
So far I by doing learned;
The Gamo break barrel is not powerful enough for HN18's
The Gamo consistently shoots MOS with the GTO Predators if I do my part
I shoot a tighter group at 10M on 5X vs 7X (the image waves around too much at 7x)
I am more comfortable and relaxed prone than on a bench
Apparently I am near sighted enough to make the eye relief on LPVO critical and to induce parallax if not at the exact eye distance.
I'm going to classify the Wildcat Gamo as a "magnum" as there's a lot of movement
When using a bag with a jumper put the balance point just past the trigger guard on the front rest (i read that and it worked)
150 hand pumps on the AEA challenger is only good for one or two mags before the POI changes
If I do everything right and position and hold the rifle in such a way that it moves straight back (and forward) I hit an 8 or better...
I still have two days weather permitting :-)
Hoosier Daddy:
Outstanding Charles!

Hoosier Daddy:
