Title: Second Submission
Post by: Kid Shelleen on May 06, 2020, 07:53:08 PM
I tried a different tune on my FX Crown .25 last night and took it out to the range (Pioneer Gun Club) today.  Shot a few sight in targets and decided to try to shoot another NUAH target.  Today must be my lucky day because I shot a sub MOA group, .879 inches.  I should go out and buy a lottery ticket… lol.

Awesome shooting Mike. Will wait for Marty's official reply, but looks like it qualifies you for Master class.
Also would be a score of 50/50 w/2x. Would have been 3x but looks like one is touching the line.

You should enter that in this months match.

Excellent shooting Kid Shelleen.  Now, try doing it off your drunk horse.

Mike, congrats to you!  Very nice group and with wind.  Buy that lottery ticket.

What velocity did you shoot with the 34g?  I ask because I am having so-so luck with my Safari at around 948 FPS average.  Looks like you did well so this continues to give me inspiration.

Thanks all.  Ray... Had to sell the horse.  Couldn't  break it of the habit of leaning against a wall and falling asleep.  :)

That horse should have received an Academy Award too!

I never knew that an X couldn't touch the line. Backwards from a shot touching  the line you get the higher score. Learn something new every day. Thanks

Richard, that is only for the Matches, to even out the scores between calibers.... For NUAH qualifications, touching a line counts the higher value, because your division level is mostly based on group size.... For example, to qualify as a Master, you need a sub 1" group, C-T-C, and all shots must be inside or touching the 2 MOA (10) ring, and X's don't matter....
