The 2014 New York State Championship in pictures, well MOSTLY.  ;-)

11/12/2014

5 Comments

 
When a region holds a sizable chunk of good shooters in a specific specialty, it is no wonder that the scores posted may look like an anomaly for the rest of the regions.

Such is the case with the North-East and Mid-Atlantic region of the USA. The section that comprises the states on the East Coast that go from Maryland to Maine. There are a bunch of good Spring-Piston shooters there!

And of all the states that conform the region (and by extension, the Minutemen Field Target League), New York is the state with most active FT Clubs and will be the state with most G.P. shoots for the next season 2014-2015 (our season runs from October to November) when the region hosts four two-day shoots, and of those four, three will be in NY State.

With this background, it is hardly surprising that the NY State FT Championships is always one of the most competitive events with a strong turnout (for a State Match under US Standards), 25 shooters convened on a beautiful autumn day to shoot the match.
Picture
Shooters milling around the registration table, waiting for the range to be declared "hot".
Picture
Tons of Hellos and Howdy's. We usually see each other almost every month, but between the World's, and Pyramyd Air's Cup, I had not seen some of the friends in what seemed like ages.
Picture
Matt Brackett was calling" Hello Compadre!" LOL! In the rear, two of the deans of FT in the US, Jim Wilcox and Hans Apelles. It is worthwhile noting one of the things that makes this shoot so challenging. The inclination of the sun during fall and the extremely high contrast between sunny spots and shadowed spots is definitely something.
Picture
When all the sighting in had been done, and the squadding, and everything was ready, the shooters meeting was called. That still did not deter most shooters from "visitin'" with the other shooters . . . almost like herding cats. ;-)
Picture
One other aspect that makes this course "peculiar" are the extreme shots. Last lane has a pair of targets that sometimes are rated "free position", but this time they were rated "kneeling". At these steep angles it takes a LOT of practice and a good gun to score well in the lane. Best score for this lane, I think, was Veronika's 3/4. Here Matt Brackett takes aim at the upper squirrel. Tom Holland in the background is shooting a fairly level shot at a tree target.
Picture
Immediately after that uphill kneeling lane, what do we get? a downhill standing lane, . . . Of Course! LOL! Here Tom Holland and Craig Evans take their turn at the lane.
Picture
A little bit further down the line, Jerry LaRocca takes aim with his left handed TX-200. Atop sits a well marked Bushnell. On the bottom, a Rowan Engineering "hamster". Jerry is one of the better shooters in the area. Creating a squad with Jerry, Matt Brackett (also a top score shooter more often than not) and myself was typical of Ray. I had a REAL hard time just keeping up with these two excellent shooters. As always, it was a pleasure and a privilege to see them shoot.
Picture
A view down the shooting line of a Match operating almost at capacity. Yes there were 25 shooters, but if you count the table of results there were 28 guns. Nick, Greg and Larry were shooting 2 guns each. To the max, the range can take 39 guns, but it really becomes a little bit more than "cramped". From near to far on the line: Rich Bassett gathering his things, Hans preparing the shot, Dave Lee shoots and Nick Gregorias scores, Art Deuel is preparing an offhand shot. Eric Brewer getting ready. Behind the line, Pat Shirhall getting her chair, Nathan Thomas walking, Ray chatting with Greg Shirhall

With a little bit more detail: Hans shooting and Pat scoring.

A close "up and personal" picture of Ray and Greg "Smiley" Shirhall. Greg is a REALLY nice guy, but he enjoys presenting a gruff face. Especially when he is caught in the middle of a munch. ;-)
Picture

Picture
Towards the last lanes, the range narrows, while it creates a little bit of a cramp, it is always a good excuse to chat and to banter. From left: Eric Brewer shooting, Jim Wilcox, Kevin Kunkle, Glenn Thomas, almost hidden from the camera by Glenn, Harold Schaeffer. To the extreme right, Paul Bishop.
Picture

The Girls Squad. Peggy is Eric's wife and we did all we could to convince her to shoot. Well, this was her FIRST shoot! And do not EVER think that girls do things in "unorthodox" ways. They are different, and they require different approaches than men. And they can kick . . . . as we all saw, LOL!
We had a ton of fun! I had some problems with two targets: one on lane C and another on lane ¿E? (I think), that I simply could not shoot from my normal FT position. I took the shots kneeling, hit some and lost some, which was somewhat irritating but, apart from that, the Match was run impeccably, there were no cold lines & no target malfunctions. Most shots were on the "longish" side, with quite a few in the 45 to 55 yards band. Wind was an interesting combination of left, right, quartering and directly from the back. This last wind poses a VERY interesting problem, because since we are shooting from the top of the ridge, part of the stream goes down, but also part of the stream opens up by keeping straight in the laminar flow.
Matt B. was using his recently passed away cat's fur to see what the wind was doing (not while shooting), and the fluffs of hair were doing some pretty interesting aerial pirouettes.

The ZR Mounts behaved perfectly holding the 8-32X50 AEON at 12 ft-lbs and proving absolutely repeatable.

After the shoot, we adjourned to the Club house, where Dianne treated us to a fantastic lunch of pasta and salad (very healthy) and a good coffee, while Ray gave away the awards and prizes. The results can be seen in the "Green FT Forum".

Hopefully Hans will post the pictures of the awards, because my camera/phone battery dropped dead and I could not get any.

If you are in the area whenever there is a shoot at EFTCC, don't think twice and just go. It is a great range with challenging shots in the mix that will test any airgunner's skill level.

BIG thanks have to go to Ray and Hans for setting up the course and running the Match, and to Dianne, for the great lunch.

See you all soon!

An EPIC event.- Pyramyd Air's Cup in Ohio

11/5/2014

4 Comments

 
Some stories are better when started at the end, some are better when they start at the beginning.
In this case we'll start from the beginning.

Tyler Patner, a good FT shooter, friend, and main engine behind the drive to help Field Target Team USA in their World efforts announced at 1:34 PM of August 20th that the First Ever Pyramyd Air Cup was going to be held in New Philadelphia, Ohio, USA on the weekend of Ocotober 24-26.

By late August we were finalizing our arrangements for our trip to New Zealand and Australia that would take us away from home for more than 5 weeks. If we waited until our return to book a hotel it would too late by then. At first I thought it could be a nice drive to Ohio, but a quick call to the Love of my Life, returned an interesting fact: She would be presenting a paper at a Conference in New Orleans that week; but she could get away Friday and meet me in Ohio. That meant flights.

Looking through the Internet, between those airlines that use booking websites and those that do not, I came up with a quite economical way to get there and then get the two of us back home. A critical aspect would be the luggage, since she could not take her rifle and shooting gear I would have to fly with two full bags.
Looking into the airlines that offer a decent baggage allowance, I located a good price for my ticket on the way out and our tickets on the way back.
By 3:01 PM, of the day of the announcement, we had secured hotel, flights and car.

Seldom do things simply go the way you want them to, but this time it seemed they were.

By August 24th we were boarding our plane to New Zealand, the World's Matches and Australia; what a trip!
If you look down in this same blog, you will find my note on that.

Time waits for no one, and when we returned there were tons of things to be done, and some pending matters, like Diana's new ZR Mounts, that had to be received, delivered, tested; and a bunch of other stuff. Between all the pending matters, when the time came to shoot the Pyramyd Air Cup, I was not really ready.

On one hand I thought that my WFTF rifle would be a good idea. But this Cup, being a non-AAFTA event, offered the opportunity to use a full power rig (TRUE 20 ft-lbs.) and test the ZR Mounts at the same time. Nothing risked, nothing gained, I thought to myself and off I went with my old 0.20" cal. D-54 in the Tyrolean stock and a Bushnell 6-24X40 AO MilDot 1" scope on the ZR Mounts.

Initial tests at the home range had proven that the mounts did repeat POI, and groups of ½" at 38 yards were not uncommon, almost typical.

Going back to our two duffles technique of traveliing, I packed Veronika's and my rifles, and when the time came, I drove to LGA to board the flight to Ohio.

When we travel it is usually Veronika the one that reminds me of everything I have to take, but this time she was in New Orleans. So I rescued the checklist we had written up some time ago and proceeded to check the important stuff. Thanks to that list, I did not forget the pellets this time! LOL!

The flight was uneventful, landed on time, I proceeded to take delivery of the rental car, hooked my GPS and I arrived to the hotel Thursday afternoon, went for lunch at the Bistro next door, checked in, put the guns together and headed to the range.

Halfway to the range the GPS went dead.  Ooooppppsss!

Luckily I remembered more or less the route and proceeded.

After only one bad turn, I got to the range and this is what greeted me:

Picture
Up the driveway, another greeting:
Picture
Well, at least I was in the right place! LOL!

Took a stroll around the ranges and could not help but envy a little those that can call Tusco Rifle Range "home", absolutely great ranges!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Meeting no one, I returned (by memory) to the hotel (no bad turns this time), via the nearest Staples, as I had found out that it was the power outlet of the rental car what was not working. I bought a USB to mini-USB cable, and that allowed me the luxury of charging the GPS from the hotel's outlet with the phone charger.

Early Friday I was at the range and spent a little while just saying hello to everyone. It was great to meet old and new friends there, from the Crosman crew, to the local Range officers, everyone was friendly and welcoming, and interested in a little chat.

I was most impressed by the most recent iteration of the Marauder:
Picture
Called the "Armada" it will hit the streets real soon at a very reasonable price (under $1k I was told), and given the architecture and the first ever usage of standard interfaces in the stock, grip and forend rails, it is truly a departure from "normal" airguns. Steel bolt, oversize knob, Picatinny top rail, SUBSTANTIAL receiver. The gun has important aspects that will, for sure, make it a good seller, not the least its looks and accessorizing possibilities.

On further discussions, I was told that a Bull-Pup version could be soon on the works, so that is something to look forward to.

In these cases, I like to record for posterity not only the development itself, but those persons that have had the opportunity to put forward a "grain of sand":
Picture
You can clearly see that the Armada is not a short gun, and also how much shorter it would be in a Bull-Pup version. HOPEFULLY, the Bull-Pup version WILL have an all metal continuous frame and an electronic trigger, to get away of linkages, bars, and pivots that are so detrimental in trigger pulls when a connection link has to be established from the front to the rear/sear.

On display also was the not yet released Hawke AirMax 30. A scope that has been available in Europe for the better part of this year. Pity that Hawke sees fit to treat the American market in this way, but I suppose they know better.

One of the fun parts of going to these events is to watch people in action. Ray was shooting and talking (as is his usual self) when someone approached him for help.
Without hesitation, he got up, asked for tools and proceeded to disassemble the problematic gun and to diagnose the ORing that was faulty.
I am sure that, under normal circumstances, he would have had the spare! LOL!. but this year he has been shooting a springer and he does not carry all his spares anymore. He did take the time to explain and help the shooter in question about exactly what he needed to do.
Picture
I think this is something that is typical of FT shooters, but not so much among other specialties. FT shooters will go out of their way to help anyone, even a potential competitor.

Next on the agenda was the PayDay Challenge. Three guns, sighted in to fixed distances of 50, 75 and 100 yards and FT's of full size KZ set at those distances.
No shooter could adjust anything in the rig. Not the ocular focus, not the settings, nothing. An interesting challenge for those of us that see well at a distance, but whose near vision has been spoiled by seeing too much airgun eye candy on the internet!

After working out some glitches in the Cricket at 50 yards (the suppressor was not really working well), we started hitting the target. Interesting gun. Not my cup of tea, but interesting, and accurate.
The Marauder at 75 proved to be the most challenging, as the focus of the reticle was over the next county as far as my eyes were concerned (all were a way off, but this one was WAAAAYYYYYY off), young eyes had no trouble, but older eyes could see three fuzzy reticles (you guessed where the center one was and aimed with that one).
The AA ExtraFAC was a superbly set gun. The reticle still provided some challenge, but not as bad as the Marauder.

By the time I finished with 6 hits overall, I was very satisfied. And as time dragged on and my score still was the highest I even dared to hope.

And then came Sidney! LOL!
Picture
She came, sat down and proceeded to shoot a 7! After her last shot, her father called out: "It is now official, you have all been beaten by a "GURL"!

Way to go, Sidney, congrats!

It was a ton of fun!

I left the range to go pick Veronika up from the Airport and to change cars, as we could not have a non-functioning GPS. No gas station sells maps anymore!

;-)

Next day, Veronika made her social rounds
Picture
Veronika with Mark DeBoard and Justin, from Crosman.
Picture
And here she is with Eric Brewer
Anyway, we had not touched the guns since New Zealand, and she had a lot to get done, so time for sighting in!
Picture
Nope, that is not my coffee! LOL!
Over the weekend I shot more than 1,000 rounds of 13.7 JSB's. Not only was I sighting in, I was testing the ZR Mounts. As far as the repeatability goes, the mounts proved repeatable. If you moved the scope's AO, then you needed to click them once or twice, but from shot to shot, they are repeatable.
After the sighting-in, we adjourned to the Silhouette Match.

I started well, but when moving from the Chickens to the Turkeys, something went wrong. I should have suspected something then and there, but I did not.
Picture
Sharing the "Balconies" with Matt Zimmermann from Pyramyd Air, behind him his father Lance and behind Lance, Matt's mother Mary. A family affair!
Picture
The silhouette Match was officiated on the springer side by Gene S. from Pyramyd Air. 
Ray requested to shoot the black silhouettes, since he could not resolve the orange ones, permission was given and in the heat of the competition, Veronika forgot which silhouette she was shooting at. Believing she had shot out of order, she skipped one silhouette and shot only three of one of the ranges.
Even with that, she tied with Ray for the top spot in Silhouette.

Then came lunch and then we faced the FT competition.

I was squadded with Matt Zimmermann, and for the first leg, we had the pleasure of the company of his parents, Lance and Mary. By the end of the shoot, Lance was the official score keeper.
Picture
Picture
When we tallied the scores, Matt was somewhat disappointed with his score of 12, but given his rig and that this was his first FT shoot, I thought he did REAL well!
Picture
It was a dark and windy day afternoon (it seems that this is a pattern at this range, winds kick up in the afternoon) At first I was doing reasonably well, but towards the end of the shoot, I started seeing unexplainable misses. Even with those I ended the day with a 33, not bad and not too far behind Ray.

As the day drew to a close, we all got ready for the banquet. As I always ask: ¿What goes hand in hand with good FT shooting? Good food, of course! LOL!

The banquet was extraordinary. From the salads to the desserts, everything was real good. Too good, AAMoF, because we all felt heavy next morning!

Josh treated us to one of his "speeches", refraining as much as he could on his "longshoreman speak"
Picture
Picture
A real celebrity get-together, from forum owners to big bore hunters.
Picture
And the Pyramyd Air Crew in "Fashion mode" ;-)
By next morning, clouds had dispersed and we looked at the amiable possibility of a sunny day! We were also shooting FT in the morning and shooting the "Gunslinger" in the afternoon, so a little less to contend on the wind side, but the usual effect of the ranging issues when you have adjusted your ocular in dark conditions and the sun pops out.
Picture
We repeated squadding, so I was shooting with Matt again. Sadly, Matt's family had to be elsewhere and we did not have the pleasure of their company.

Veronika had a good time with her squad:
Picture
The second round of FT demonstrated what I was beginning to fear: The scope was toast.

After a number of unexplainable misses, I started sacrificing the first shot and aiming at the eye of the squirrel or any other point I knew the target would not be rattled down, but would still give me an indication of where the system was shooting. And indeed I started seeing that the Bushnell was not holding zero at all.

Let me remind everyone here that when a 20 ft-lbs D54 lets go, it applies around 30,000 g's of inverse recoil to the scope. I had hoped that with the ZR Mounts, this would be negated, but in reality it is not. It is spread over more time, normally the Bushnell would have given up the ghost at around shot number 30 to 50. That it lasted well into the 500th shows that the base does some mitigation. But not enough.

After ending with a dismal 27 (and that was with 6 free points), I went to the Sighting in range and tested the scope.¿How do I do this?, well, you take a shot, then click 10 clicks up, then click 10 down, and take the next shot. Then repeat for every shot. If the group you get is smaller than the group without the up and down clicking, then the scope is toast. It is not holding zero. This will be the fourth Bushnell that gets chewed by the 0.20" cal.  Speaking of the scope, the scope will not hold zero at 12 ft-lbs either without the ZR mounts. Perhaps it will hold zero at 12 ft-lbs with the ZR Mounts, but that was not what was expected. And, quite frankly, given the excellent track record of the AEON scopes, the much better reticle, and the repeatability of the ZR mounts, I think that the next thing I need to test is an AEON on the ZR Mounts on a 12 ft-lbs CCA WFTF D54 rifle. This should give peace of mind about scope performance. But, Back to PA's Cup:

Over the two FT events, and as part of the process of getting the range officers of Tusco Rifle Club acquainted with airguns, Veronika was admonished to not cock and load her rifle with the muzzle up.
Strange because in EVERY country we have gone to, UP and DOWN are considered safe directions. Either because they are worried about their tin roofs, or because they DO come from a background where semi-auto and even full-auto matches are fired, the range officers were a little "overzealous". I am sure this is one of the things that will be taken care of for next year. Range officers need to understand that ALL spring-piston airguns are single shots. That you can have a cocked rifle that is STILL "SAFE".

Veronika developed a stretched tendon trying to keep the muzzle pointed downrange while at the same time cocking the D54. And this aggravated itself over the course of the second day of shooting.
When she asked over the lunch break for a cold pack we had a nice, agreeable conversation with one of the range officers and once explained; he agreed with us that a cocked spring-piston air rifle can STILL be SAFE. Tusco Rifle Range crew did everything they could and provided the needed cold packs, and so she could continue to shoot.

And then came the Gunslinger.

Prior to the "Pro's" (not completely comfortable with that, ROFL!) the Sportsmen had shot and over the course of the two days and the three competitions, our friend Eric Brewer had come out on top of the Springer Class.
Picture
By this time I had disassembled and packed my gun. There was no sense in shooting a timed ilhouette match with a gun that needed 10 clicks up and 10 clicks down for every shot. LOL!

But Veronika insisted I borrow her gun. So I did and I was faced up with Ray. I opted to shoot sitting and he opted for the benchrest. He had removed the hamster of his FWB 300 and he was confident he could get up, cock the gun, sit down, aim, and shoot, at the needed speed.

At first we cleared the chickens at the same time, then I went for the turkeys, but I just could not find them with the POI's that Veronika had given me and the blurry reticle set for her eyes. After 7 misses I skipped the turkeys cleared the pigs and was on my last ram when Ray finished. This is going to be one INTERESTING event next year!  ;-)

It was then the turn of Veronika to shoot off against Matt Z., and Matt was faster.

Which left the MD (Stormie)  with a quandary: Veronika had to face me and we were sharing the rifle.

I tried to concede, but Veronika would not let me do so. Luckily Eric came to my rescue and I borrowed his D54. I just could not get the feel for his reticle and Veronika ended much faster than I did.

I am very proud of the way Veronika is shooting offhand. All the microsilhouettes over last winter's "Zimmer-Silhouetten" paid off big time!

In the end, the Pro-Springer class ended with Ray as the first place, Veronika as the second place and your humble writer in the third.

Once all was said and done, even Stormie (Pyramyd Air) took a shot at the Silhouettes:
Picture
One of the things that can be improved for next year is using resettable silhouette "Balconies" for the silhouette part allowing the shooting of a full 40 shot round of Silhouette; and using Biathlon style targets for the Gunslinger part. With resettables, the shoot would proceed smoother and faster. Quite some time was devoted to hunt for the silhouettes in the grass. 
When a 0.20" cal. 20 ft-lbs pellet hits a chicken, off it goes! We found some of them around the rams line, almost 20 yards from where they had stood at the time of the impact.
Picture
While on the subject of targets, some Remington targets were set in the "Try me" range, and they proved to be "completely useless":
Picture
They cannot stand up to hits from the 0.50" cals! ROFL!
Picture
Actually, getting serious: targets are mechanical things, they have a range of action. If you exceed that range either above or below, then you are asking of that mechanical device something it was not designed for.
And this is something that can also be improved for next year: We need a chrono at the range, and ALL guns need to be chrono'ed. Give some instrumental tolerance level, like 2½% on energy, which is sort of an international standard. But people who are grossly overpowered should be told.

It is somewhat unfair for people that claim not to know their Muzzle energy to shoot with 30+ ft-lbs guns at targets that when they fail, create problems for everyone else. From cold lines to actually bent targets and paddles.
Once all the events had been shot and all the numbers were in, the MD's took a short while to tally up the numbers and then came the awards ceremony.

Tyler started off by thanking everyone for the attendance, and then proceeded to give away the "Top Shot" trophy to Ray Apelles:
Picture
His performance over three days of competition was outstanding and we were all very glad to see him get the trophy.
It is interesting to note how Pyramyd Air took into account the difference in power plant between spring-piston and PCP shooters, and how the "tennis type" awards of points proved to be a good way of getting everyone "graded" for awards purposes.

Congrats Ray!

Then came the rest of the awards:

Picture
Tyler gave himself first place in the Pro PCP division. Greg tied with Tyler, but he conceded. Guess it HAD been three VERY long days.
Picture
Greg placed second in the Pro-PCP class.
Picture
Paul Cray placed third in the Pro-PCP class. And that, having missed completely one event. This should be an interesting event next year. Ah! nevermind Paul's gesture, he has been going to Vegas too much lately. LOL!
Picture
Ray picked up his First place in Pro-Springer.
Picture
Veronika was very happy to have overcome her physical discomfort and getting Second place. She gave a kiss to Tyler, of which I do not have a picture.
Picture
What I do have a picture of is my reaction when he asked for a kiss from me! (Not true, just kidding.)
Picture
In the Sportsmen division, Bill Rabbitt placed first. . . . Which means that next year he will be competing in the Pro division. ;-) Bill is a good shooter and a good designer. I am sure we will hear from him in many ways in the near future.
Picture
Tom Himes getting his second place in the Sportsmen PCP division. Another shooter that will shoot in the Pro division next year.
Picture
Dennis Himes taking his third place cup. He will still be able to shoot in the Sportsmen Division next year.
Picture
Eric Brewer, very happy to pick up his First place in the Sportsment Springer Division. Another shooter that we will hear a lot more in the near future and who will shoot in the Pro Division next year.
Picture
Sam Ventura, picking up his second place. Another that will be welcome to the Pro division next year.
Picture
Joe Roberts, one of the young guys that hopefully will stay with the sport in the years to come.
Picture
Apart from the awards, Pyramyd Air gave away some really good prizes. From rifles to scopes, to accessories, lots of goodies and absolutely amazing prizes.
Picture
We received a very gracious "Thank you" from Paul, one of the most experienced persons in the PA crew and now in charge of development. He wished us all safe travels and wished a happy return to Pyramyd Air's 2015 Cup.
As you can see, it WAS en EPIC shoot. From the number of shots fired, to the number of shooters, to the celebrities present, the awards, and the prizes; in all senses it was a "larger than life" event.

My sincere thanks and appreciation to Pyramyd Air collectively and, individually, to everyone that participated in the setting, MD'ing, scoring, catering, RO'ing, tear down, managing, tallying and ALL the almost infinite number of things that need to come through smoothly. SPECIAL congratulations to Tyler, who was able to manage AND shoot the event and place first in his class.

Thanks also to Brian "Boomer" for allowing me to use his excellent pictures.

And thanks to Veronika, for showing the way and being such an integral part of my life.
