1 click at 500, pretty clear mirage, swapping around to keep us on our toes.
Bloody Rigby stole his daughters gun and is smoking us with it =D> =D>

Keep your lead up Steve. It is obvious that the shooting lessons you are getting from your daughters is paying off.

It's a beautiful day at Belmont with clear blue skies and just enough wind to catch the careless, which would seem to include me, Keith Hills, Andrew Burns, Matt Paroz.......But not Steve Rigby, who is on fire !
Winds are from the WSW but less than 8 mph now as we get ready for the 800

I have been enjoying watching people's shoots online as they happen, but just one question. What does the "P" mean that comes up in the scores?

I wondered about that too... if you zoom into the target it seems that it stands for Pin... center of the X ring

Watching the shots live is quite interesting, if there was a mic near the shooter would be even more entertaining for us armchair shooters. :D

Or listening to us key bourd shooters saying click up, click up, click, no not that much.

The censors wouldn't want that, Tim.
At the 900, you would be hearing a cacaphony of that "F word" !!
Huge variations in conditions.......winds mainly from 8 o'clock to 12 o'clock but huge differences in the speed of the changes in direction. My own target is a good example..... lots of us with great waterlines, but 5's either side........so all we have to talk about is our "great vertical".
My 54-0 gave me last place, but still well in front of Mark Fairbairn and Mile Samuels' scores with big FTR pills.
Matty shot early and his conditions weren't brutal.........still they were hard, and he did a great job. Alan Fraser handled very tough conditions with class. Just into the second 900 now. Winds much kinder.
