[QUOTE="chav0_12, post: 3063662, member: 29765"] Here are my thoughts on this...This guy just plain isn't a good shooter. Unknown variables, sure. Hard to get ranges, sure. But his hit percentages were terrible. Just this past Saturday I shot in my first ever PRS style competition. I used a loaner rifle that the organization provided. I showed up with 140 rounds of ammo, for the 98 round course. The rifle got there late, I had enough time to shoot 10 rounds, verify zero and get a velocity. Of the targets there, at known ranges, I was able to hit 65% out to 1254 yards with a rifle I never shot with ammo I was unfamiliar with. I did use my Kestrel with AB. My first stage went very poorly as I needed to borrow a tripod that I wasn't familiar with the controls for it. My second to last stage I made 2/3 at 1060 just holding a little bit of wind and using the come-ups from the Kestrel with AB. I actually went 7/10 on this stage with 3 rounds at 1060, 3 at 980, 2 at 950, and 2 at 625, I cant remember what other two shots I dropped. This guy came unprepared and is just bad a shooting.
