RE: 2020 Creedmoor Cup Lodi
TNX. Jim,
Switching from irons in the middle of a match is tough. I had to do this last year at Lodi because I cross fired twice in one relay because I just could not see the target or read the number boards. My iron sight shooting is over unless the day is bright. I can still see the white spots on the iron gong shoots but loose the black spot on paper.
I ended up in the middle of the pack on my last Lodi switching sights and finding the paper when shooting for record. I think Lodi would benefit if they would open the range with a day of practice. I think it would boost the entry roster.
Jim, I never shot the .44-77 at a long range match except the Gond shoots and this was with the 19 twist rifle. It shot well at the Q but that is only a 805 for the long range and at Baker I played with the hunting rifle .44-77 with the 19 twist but that was using the barrel sights and I did not have a problem on their 1020-24??? yd iron staying on it once I found the range with the 485 gr Sharps bullet.
When you switched to the scope, did you feel it would handle the long range well enough to be competitive?
