Did you know that shooting is just like golf? In that rounds are affected by the wind, they don't fly straight, they drift with the wind, much like a golf ball. So you have to aim off in order to allow for that drift.
This video shows me doing exactly that, with amazing footage taken live through the rifle scope as each shot is taken. I basically never aim dead centre, and you'll see me aim off into the wind.
The card I'm shooting is the Target Rifle Australia Benchrest card, shot at a distance of 50m outdoors. The faint ring (the X ring) in the middle of each target is 6mm diameter, the thicker ring just outside it (the 10-ring) is 10.4mm diameter.
Wind conditions started light, but built up as I progressed through the targets. The wind was right-to-left. There was even mirage and rain added to the mix.
It's rare you get to see footage of target shooting shot through the rifle scope, but even rarer to see a perfect shoot, a 200.20.
