Silver Mountain Electronic Scoring Image

I thought I would post my electronic scoring images from relay 1 of the March 2017 600 yard match at BPSC in Houston, MO.
I am sure there a a few members that have read about the new scorring system but have not seen what it looks like, well here it is.
If you have not had the chance to shoot on these new scoring systems you are missing out it is a whole new ball game and a lot of fun.

You guys need to program a 7 sec delay in your new toy Jim. That is considered the standard now by the NRA. The delay is to make it comparable to manually pulled targets.
Mike,

Is there info that would be on the target about the delay? From someone who knows squat about this, how would I know from just seeing the target?

Thanks.

Good question, I'm afraid I'm in the same boat on this. That has to be programmed in the system by the tech dept. I don't know where to look if it does so I can't answer that. Somebody HELP !! Lol

Mike, from what I understand the basic system does not have the ability to be programmed for a delay. So it is going to be like this until if or when BPSC upgrades the system.
BPSC is not a pit type range so they never have had a delay in the past.
I believe the majority of the shooters at BPSC like it this way or at least that's what we are accustom to.
 
The ES numbers are a mystery to me. I have never seen that large of spread (at the muzzle) in the past. The only explanation I can come up with is the wind, we were shooting almost directly in to the wind.
At target velocity ES will most always certainly be larger and more erratic, do to the slight variations in bullet BC and there "time of flight" individual effects. Also things like: "cold barrel verses hot barrel", as well as barrel fouling scenario's, will show up more at the target then at the muzzle. The further the distance the more velocity ES will be effected do to the increase in time of flight. At the same time, the capturing of velocity at the target can tell us a lot about bullet quality and consistency, and provide useful data to bullet segregation/qualifications, modifications (such as pointing and/or trimming), and bullet erosion.

You really screwed that up on shot 12 Lol

'S'why some folks have taken to weighing primers for heaven's sake....

As for velocity numbers... bear in mind the SMT gurus recommend we not use those numbers for any critical evaluation of external ballistics, that's not what they're intended to be used for. It's not like having a dedicated chronograph array at the target plane though some prefer to believe otherwise.
