would`nt make any difference on power! Our flop shooters consistently shoot 1/2 scale and 1/5 scale 40`s 60`s 80`s with peep on peep!

yea Jackie at your downhill range, I'd like to see what you would to on an uphill range!!! :)) :)) The first question a flop shooter from down south asked about Tusco was "is it up hill" HA! If it was I bet that shooter would not have showed!
I have shot uphill, downhill,flat.The Rams at Tri City gun club are elevated 15 feet up.I have never been seen a range that gave me problems.
How many ranges does the average person shoot at? Most stay at their home club or state.Most of the better shooters find a load, or caliber,or shooting position and will find a way to make it work, when others cant.The question was yes? or no? and he wanted some pic`s.
I have not thumped the tub for him to change,I just gave what he ask for.

overall, I have no problems with flop guns EXCEPT two things, That blasted Tank Brake and It is Highly uncomfortable for me (due to a back injury a long time ago).

Plus, I am an Old timer, and still prefer the creedmore position and my Big calibers.
