First across-the-course match of the year was at Scarborough today. Very sporty wind for the off hand portion of the match.
 200 yards - Off Hand: Scarborough F&G 2023. |

Does the wind make it harder for holding steady as well? Seems like it would

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By glmf40: Does the wind make it harder for holding steady as well? Seems like it would Oh yes, quite a bit in off-hand. On real windy days, you can get buffeted by gusts even in the prone position. Much greater effect on the shooter than the bullet at short range, but once you get to 300 yards and especially at 600, the bullets do get effected a fair amount with changes in wind and mirage. |

I'm up in the county. Always wanted to attend maybe someday compete in a highpower.
What time do the events run? I don't have a competitive service rifle, just a few 16" and 11.5" Duty rifles. |

@campower
Sorry I did not see your post. Here is a link to the 2024 Schedule. Closest thing to the county is Hampden near Bangor. Typically they start at 9, which means show up by 8:30. Pine Tree State Rifle & Pistol has some service rifles we can loan out for the matches, but a 16" should be fine. You would want some decent match ammo (75gr HPBT or similar) for the 600 yard stage. |
