04.10.21 Diablo Airgun Benchrest 50 and 100 yard Matches Report
We had a fun but very challenging matches today. Wind was quite strong for the 100 yard match but was more steady and from the same direction. By the time we got to the 50 yard match, wind became gusty and changed directions constantly. A lot of 360’s on the wind flags which made interesting to attempt to find a constant wind condition to shoot to. None could be found.
100 yard Match:
- Congratulations to Hector who finished in First Place shooting a Redwolf .22 with a score of 664 & 3X
- followed by Pierre in second place with his FX Impact .22 with 636 & 1X,
- third was John shooting a Redwolf .22 with 624 & 1x and
- fourth was Henry shooting an FX Crown .25 with 616 & 0X.
50 yard Match:
- Congratulations to John who finished in First Place shooting a Redwolf .22 with a score of 658 & 4X
- followed by Pierre in second place with his FX Impact .22 with 647 & 12X,
- third was Hector shooting a Redwolf .22 with 633 & 9x and
- fourth was Dave A. shooting an FX Maverick .22 with 631 & 1X.
