    @mitch00 I would suggest the people running the event need to improve the reliability of their scoring systems if there is a reasonably chance that with a non-magnum calibre (allowed by the rules) hits will not be recorded. My understanding is that the event includes a reasonable entry fee and a reasonable prize table.

    GPR Events has had similar issues with small calibre hits on the larger, longer range targets being difficult to score and we are taking steps to avoid this in future events - of course we don't have their prize table either and this is one of the reasons why not.

    Absolutely the magnum calibres allow for a greater margin for error in your wind calling ability and improve the reaction of a target to a hit but as a competitor I would be a bit pissed on the day to have my final placing determined (in part) by hits not being recorded.
    You cannot miss fast enough!
