    So, after playing with Alexa a little bit this evening it seems she is way smarter than Siri. Just an observation.

    I did pretty well my first time out to this flavor of match. Really enjoyed the course. Seemed pretty special to me & I wonder just how many places there are like it. Not many I imagine, but I wouldn't know. Makes all the difference when your data is gtg, which mine was golden after my class the previous weekend with Colorado Precision Rifle @ BSR. Brian Whalen really helped me put the bits of info I had together & build up more from there... anyhoo... its Virginia count on the clock so your best guess is the only one you get. Trigger time & good data records are next. Im @ 430 rds on my first bolt gun so Im pretty dang pleased I could shoot 36 points when the match was won with 51 points with only 60 possible. I can do better. Its really hard & it also kind of wasn't -- might be my thing & ill just have to see how it goes.
    Very cool. You have been thoughtful and smart with your money and it is paying off.

    What did you learn at the match?

    Yeah, about that... there are quite a few things on my wish list, nothing too extravagant though. 10" Arca rail, shorter atlas bipod, 55" pelican hardcase, accuracy first scope level, Hawkins rings, a pollok shooting mat, a kestrel with ab/link & the largest bulk lot of 6.5cm ammo I can afford in a single purchase.

    Uffda mega.

    Not sure I can answer that last question without writing a novel... & I'm still processing -- something specific you're looking for me to say ?
