NEW IHMSA WORLD RECORD

Post by nutcase »

since they are being too modest or just shy, I will post it :D

On March 4th, during the Minnesota state air gun championships, John Richards shot the first ever 40x40 in USIS. a check of the records shows the previous record was 39x40!

Congrats!

Thanks guys, your acknowledgements mean more than the score.
Just a quick recap, shooting without a spotter getting ready to take last shot after running 39 targets. I hear someone's spotter say 35 seconds left, I brought my gun up and said to myself "now don't _uck this one up"
I had three 39's in past , always missing something on the front half before, that really makes you think...
Thanks again for your kind words, hope to see you at the range this summer. JR
