Sounds like a great day...
Wonder if my Rem 700 in .223 would qualify for this class :) would be interesting :)

See the S-Class thread in the Competitive Shooting section.

20th out of 23 shooters....
Well not as good as last year but a lot more fun and I did say I was not going to come last.

The 500/600 scores we're pretty good - it was the first detail that dropped the points...and as I remember it you were still zeroing in, and battling with 'Zebedee the bi-pod'!
If it's any consolation, my 'PB' in the gallery rifle would have put me in the 30s in x class.....
...onwards and upwards!

''The competition itself - Well nothing to write home about, the shorter bipod made for some impressive hop, I was on target 60 and every shot would leave me looking at target 55, how many MOA of hop is that! ''
This I can help with as I used to have the same problem. All you have to do is shorten the bi-pod leg on the opposite side to the direction of the hop and then use the swivel to adjust for cant. It takes a huge amount out of the hop.
