New Contest Starting Now! This Target Haunts Me
Tell us about the one that got away, the flier that ruined your group, the zero that drifted, the shot you still see when you close your eyes. Winner will receive a free scope!
I got some missing match data so here is another "final" update. Still hoping to get data from two matches that have been bad about reporting or posting results.

I usually recommend that King matches not be your first ELR competition. ELRSO Pro/Am is a great choice but whatever is near you is a solid choice. Safety First Tactical maintains the most comprehensive match schedule. Shouldn't be too hard to find on Facebook (if you are willing to go such...
Here are the match results. Congrats to our podium teams! Major accomplishment with so many competitors.
Hope you all had fun and I look forward to seeing most of you at Ko2M next month.

Monolithics in larger calibers virtually always have lower engraving pressures than jacketed bullets. The length of the full bore diameter in a jacketed bullet is quite large and as you get to .510 you may have 5 times the surface area in an Amax then a monolithic. When you get to designs line...
Frank has been to a few matches but to the best of my knowledge has never shot in one. There are a lot of ELR matches now so unless you live in the People's Republic of California there is usually a match within an easy drive of where you live. I'd say that the actual number of active...
Ranking is based upon the best performance in the past 3 years at any match target over 1500 yards. here is the full explanation if you would like to be the fourth person on the planet to actually read it...

There is also a post here with the rankings but it may be down the history a page.
There has been a bit of confusion as to the match schedule for Ko2M this year so let us clarify things a bit. The shooters will be broken down into three groups. Each group will spend two days on the Tubb range each shooting their preliminary rounds for Ko2M on separate days. The third day...
Ko2M is the World Championships of Heavy Gun ELR. As Always, we present the finest selection of targets, the best camera system and one of the finest locations for long range shooting on the planet.
Registration before 8/12 is restricted to shooters and their spotter who have at least one team...
Steve, all ranking systems are an attempt to reconcile a variety of factors into some kind of comparable format. There are strengths and weaknesses for each. Shanes system is probably quite good when comparing large matches but completely excludes people who shoot at smaller events regardless...
So the problem with that is the occasions when a match uses a completely broken scoring system. Here is the same match with the scores calculated by their original standard, Ko2M with no multipliers and Ko2M standard. What is clear as day is that by any mathematically defensible scoring...
Looks like a good start. As you say, all systems have bias. Refining any model to reduce that comes down to eliminating the extraneous influences where you can, so take this as advice on potential issues that are fixable
What scoring system did you normalize against? Most functional scoring...
