Thread: WBC14, World Bench Rest champs 14.

These were held at my local range in Nelson from 02 to 12-11-17 & I was asked to post my results.



The weather was nice but windy, much, much more windy than normal...



There were 71 shooters from 12 countries, my goal was "not to be last"



I got extremely lucky with my 5 shot warm up group on the first day of competition, a PB, it was remeasured after this pic at 0.076, the world record is 0.065 it was the smallest group shot at 100 yards during the comp out of 852 groups, yep as, mentioned extremely lucky, it didn't feature in my points, being the warm up, but I did get an medal for it, which was quite a surprise at the awards dinner



A great bunch of Guys & from around the world out for tea at one of the sponsors establishments



I had a great time & it was strange not shooting on the 13th after 10 straight days of shooting, I managed mid field or better in the individual details, which surprised me, I got very lucky, & placed 18th in the Heavy Varmint Grand Agg results, the extremely unpredictable wind changed the game, much like rain at Bathurst.



The Aussies won the over all competition edging out the USA, the results are here http://www.nzdanelson.co.nz/wbr2017.html

I met a great bunch of Guys, I'm really looking forward to catching up with them again at WBC 15 in Canada July 2019, lots of practice to be done before then though
