The tatrgets were reviewed by the "Record Committee" as required by the rules. The record committee did not agree with the range scorers measurements. This is standard procedure whenever a possible record is reviewed. It has nothing to do with whether the shooter was a nice guy or not. A full explanation of the process was covered, on www.benchrest.com, back when the targets were first reviewed. My wife shot a possible IBS record last summer. The range scorer posted a 500-21X 100/200 agg score for Varmint Hunter class. The 3 member record committee were unanimous in declaring the targets to be 500-20X. It was still a new record but 1 X shy of the range scorers post. I might add that all 3 referees, at the match, checked and signed the targets, as per the rule book. Those 3 shooters agreed with the range scorer.
I think that someone is shopping for comments. Someone got robbed if they got cheated. If they feel that there personnal well being was hurt by it than they need to evaluate their values.
A bad day at the range is better than a good day at work.
