Last year I was holding off about two foot and high about 6 inches (the scope I had at the time didn't have enough windage to compensate for Narrandera's 18 klm/h winds).

The following day the wind had changed direction.

Hi Adonn223,
You will be fine with the T36. That is what I use.

mate easiest way is to see if you can sight in about 14inches high at 50m this should get you on paper and you can do any more fine tunning on the day

Gday guys,
I have posted the results in the comp section, there is rimfire, centrefire and 2 gun results.

We had a great weekend and a good roll up.

Thanks to everyone who came to support us and a big thanks to everyone who helped out.

Next one is 1st and 2nd of August 2009.

At this stage we will be holding the days in reverse order, having centrefire on the saturday and rimfire on sunday so that all those that travel can at least get away earlier on the sunday.
cheers,
Shane
