OkIn the World LRML matches in the individual events, you have no spotter. You are all on your own once you hit paper.
Makes it a whole different game when you have to get up after each shot, mark your score, load your rifle and get back down into position, plus you are pair firing with another person. When pair firing, you have to wait on them to shoot, and for the target to be marked and run back up. You do all of this and have to keep an eye on the wind and call your own wind and sight changes.
Stress in a match? Try having misses off the target at 1,000 yards in the middle of your relay and you have absolutely no idea on if you are high, low, left or right. You are racking your brain to determine if you should crank on your sights and what you missed down range regarding change of conditions.
Regarding PP bullets'. I have a World record at 900 yard with a PP bullet. In the 2015 World LRML matches I shot a 67 3V out of a possibility of 75 points. A V is a bullseye. 15 shot match, max points per bullet is 5. I averaged 4.46 points per shot. This was with a Rigby rifle built in 1864. Sometimes everything works, sometimes it does not. The next day at 1,000 yards I had two misses in the middle of my relay. The misses were a great learning experience for me.

I am a lower level learner but even I know what a PP is.
This is not the kind of thing I want to read.
I find it disgusting this language is used.
