Report just in, “… it was really, really windy.”

Apparently the wind picked up substantially in later relays and wreaked havoc with scores today. This is a significant “wild card” at Perry and could make for incredibly interesting standings.

Looking back at the scores now with all three relays reported, things look a little different.

In the first relay, James Henderson’s early start at one point back and then dogged persistence combined to earn him a two point edge in the overall 22 championship – but again, that’s only for the first relay. Jim finished at 890-58X, two points ahead of Philip Hemphill and Robert Park at 888-47X and 888-43X.

6 “clean” pairs of targets (200 points) and 9 with 199.

The 22 caliber National Match Course (NMC) scores are in from the first relay.

It looks like the first relay’s Slow Fire results are posted (see match #135 here.

The scores from the NRA Practice Match are posted (see here and click #111) and Jim Henderson is the winner with an astonishing 891-56x.

The NRA Blog is updated as much as a couple of times per day with the goings-on at the Camp Perry National Championships this week (July 13-18, 2009).

The Pelican 0450 is available with a standard set of drawers (one deep, six shallow) or in an open, you-design-the-combination configuration. Although not inexpensive, this could be the ultimate pistol box for travelers.

Recently I mentioned that I had the trigger weight on my IZH-46M air pistol cranked up to the maximum. I did this to practice with a heavy trigger.
