   I note that Mike Cockcroft & his crew from Huntsville Texas are having a 500 meter fly match this weekend.

  I'm guessing this will be a "postal match" against us Aussies & so the score comparison's will be made against our Wagga match mentioned in this thread!!

  The weather forcast for Huntsville is a nice & toasty 34 degrees with gentle breezes up to 11 kph so I reckon we should expect some good scores from the Texans who have have adapted to our game with relative ease.
One unnamed shooter, while practising, has pegged a 5 shot .8" group (with 4 of those shots going sub .5')  using a  300 wsm....big things are predicted for him!

  Lets hope they attract a good field & enjoy themselves.
