[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 17419, member: 34"] Brent I don't think you have ever fired a 10 shot 1000 yard match so the procedure is probably new to you. As for judging the wind at 1000 yard match, most fire their 5 or 10 shots (depending on what club your at) as fast as possible before the conditions change and move one or two of your bullet string to another part of the target. That's why it's much easier to take a spotter shot first when hunting, and then swing right back on the animal with a final, fatal shot before the conditions have a chance to change like they would if you were firing 10 shots at a target. One shot as compared to 10 does make a difference. When you shoot fast during aa match, the chances of having a better aggregate for the year is improved. Anyway, the original post I made was, you better know the wind conditions real good and most never know how to do it correctly, even the 1000 yard match shooters. that's why most of them fire their rounds as fast as they possibly can. Usually 25 to 30 seconds for 10 shots in a 1000 yard benchrest match Later DC [ 11-26-2003: Message edited by: Darryl Cassel ] [/QUOTE]
