About this episode
So at the Nightforce ELR match I realized that my kestrel game was yellow belt and needed to level up quick. Each stage I knocked off items and details that improved my score steadily through the day.
One of the discoveries I made was a quirk with wind angle and shooting angle that made a difference if done right and caused elevation issues if not addressed.
Once fixed scores continued to climb and I continued to knock off more details that allowed me to go from somewhere between 60 and 100th to finishing top 10.
For me it was a huge win because I learned a lot and had fun doing it.
Hopefully this helps you is youre shooting at ranges where the details matter.
Inside of 1000 it really isnt much of an issue so I never paid attention.
