Let's revisit Tuners please

[Kings X]

I just re-read savagedasher thread.
for headwinds - screw out
Tailwinds - screw in.
Side winds - turn in the direction of the wind.

In F-Class we are not allowed brakes. Anything sticking out pass the crown "might" be considered a brake. (??).
So many tuners are sleeves that adjust up and down the barrel behind the crown.
So if I get this right - as the velocity slows down (due to colder temperatures) - I move the sleeve forward.
Higher temperatures increase speed - so move weight back towards action.
I would agree that each barrel is different. But once you find the formula for barrel shape and caliber - the adjustments would be very close to the same.
So I would need to test to find out how much temperature effects MY velocity. Then how much adjustment to get it back to shooting the "baseline" size group.
Have I missed something?????

You're reading way too much into this and over complicating it. Also, I find it hard to imagine an NRA endorsed f class match with ro's that don't know what a brake is and isn't. .even if they aren't familiar with tuners. Maybe you're right about them..I do not know. I can only imagine how frustrating it would be to have such uninformed match directors.

Again....way over thinking this. I will only say that this does not fit with my experience working with tuners. I do not believe there to be tuner settings that are relative to which way the wind blows that can be consistently repeated.
