If my math is correct, this means both the shooter and equipment needs to be able to consistently shoot under 1/2 MOA at shorter distances in order to even have the POTENTIAL to run with the IBRSA big dogs.
At Williamsport about 15 years ago , one of the best shooters at the 1,000 yard game had a 10 target agg of just under 8" - that is ten target of ten rounds each averaging 8". In the World Championships that year, his second shot went right off the target!!
Crap happens, for sure!
