The three bags I carry are the pump pillow which was the big 12x12 bag used on the rooftop stage, the Todd tac pad which was half the size of the pump pillow, and the mini tac pad which I typically use for a rear bag shooting prone

In was a well designed course of fire and a good bit difficult. Not so much the targets but the barricades and the wind made it fun. I did give him your number though cause his shooting stand is a little wobbly and I told him I knew a good welder to fix it..... Walter

I scored the highest on one stage out of 12, the other 11, someone or more than one person outscored me. . Seem like an unfair advantage I had?
As usual, it came down to the ability to hold still, and the ability to jidge wind, which I am forever a student of.

The stage you threw out for scope tracking, what was the problem, were things not scaled right or? Now I am wondering how many tracking really is. I haven't noticed a problem before between dialing or just holding? Walter

The board they stapled the targets to was level but the actual paper wasn't level so when dialing if the targets aren't level it won't track right.

We thought the targets had to be perfectly level. Though they were not installed that way. I have checked tracking on my scope's elevation, but not windage. The point of the stage was to get everyone thinking about their scopes tracking and I think that worked. Mine had an error at 4.0 Mil, and 5.0 Mil, but we never dialed that high on that stage. I did not pre-shoot that stage (or any others) but thought ot was a good idea and made it.

If I would have squatted on that roof, I'd would have ripped a fart, then my pants. I had a little leakage as it was. It was good to hear Jason admit the MIL, MOA, MRAD could have been set up better, he's human after all, except when he shoots, then he practices what he preaches and turns into an animal. Chuck and I had a great time hangin with you all, Chuck kept sayin it was a really great group, no big heads just boys and their toys. I'll be back again and again.. this is Jason when he shoots
