Lodi scores

[newrib]

HI All ,
The shoot at Lodi this year was Great ! The wind was really something , I have never shot in wind like that. I have my squad mates to thank for the good scores, Richard Cady and Sam Thompson were great at spotting and wind calling. I have only been shooting BPCR for a short time. My first match was 3 years ago, I had the good fortune of being squaded with Jim K. and Richard C. at my first shoot. it helps to have experienced squad mates . No one was more surprised than me when Cliff announced the standings at the end of the shoot.
The rifle used by me in this match was a Shiloh Sharps 45/70 with the Shiloh PP chamber, 34" 1 in 16 twist barrel. MVA sights. The cartridges were WW brass, CCI Bench Rest primer, 84grs Swiss 1.5, .060 Walters fiber wad and a .060 ldpe wad with a BACO 444530E paper patched 16 to 1 alloy bullet. The bullet measures 1.460 long. To be absolutely honest this combination of rifle, ammo and shooter shoots about 2.5 MOA at 100 yards for 10 shots on a good day.
I wish all happy days and great shooting !
