USARB Competition Indoor January 26, 2022

It’s an indoor range, but a lot of space to adequately heat. So lesson of the day – dress warmly.

Ronaldo and company. Excellent scores and accuracy of all your rifles. Does anyone use lube on your LV pellets at all? Is your indoor LV scores always been higher than the indoor HV? I tried to look up some past scores and gave up when I was unable to get some older posts on LV and HV indoor scores. We wished we could be there, as we have never shot a match indoors and we think it would be a lot of fun. You are very fortunate to have such a facility.
Thank-you. Doug and Vipha

Douglas,
In answer to your question.

"Does anyone use lube on your LV pellets at all?"
No... most of our experimental efforts are focused on testing pellet lots, whenever they can be gotten.

"Is your indoor LV scores always been higher than the indoor HV?"
Difficult to judge, since I'm about the only one of the group still shooting LV. But if obliged, I would
say comparable scores are shot by both LV and HV rifles indoors, differently than outdoors.

Ron, Tnanks for the information.. I have experimented with different types of lube for L.V. and the accuracy was not good at all, however I have been informed that there is a lube that helps the accuracy in L.V. just like H.V. I will verify this and let you know.
Both Vipha and I feel that our L.V. rifles are a tad more accurate than our H.V. Of course it is difficult for us to know for sure, as we do not shoot indoors. Thanks again. Doug and Vipha
