Just playing with the short barrel (TrueFlight 29.5") and 168 Matrix over H4350 at 2800 fps :) And yes, that is why the first day was pairs fire (triple in FO's case since there was only three of us - like at the Westerns :>)))) and the second day string fire for yet a different upcoming match - like at Raton :>)))) (in a triple but that does not count firing string), see the difference in the V count in worse winds day 2?? String fire sure helps eh. Plus, I want to see if firing and opening the bolt would re-damage my tendent in my right hand thumb. A pad over the tendent and a leather glove with two sheets of leather in the right area and no worries.

Also, have a close look at Jim shooting a 308 with triple nickels. 155.5s Great shooting Jimmy!!
