Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt.
Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry
Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure.

vapodogSaeed is very generous with his "hundred trillion dollar" bills....I am grateful for the one he sent me a year ago.....at the time it was worth about 8 1/2 cents USD and I "treasure" mine as I'm not likely to see Zim again the way things are going.
As to the velocity spread.....236 FPS

Chop901166 without a doubt !
I have posted the results of the first rifle at the top of this thread.
I am not going to post any more results until all the rifles have been shot, so as not to give an advantage to those who wish to enter the contest as we go along.
I will tell you one thing though.
Ammo number 7 - the federal XM193 - gave us precisely the same velocity in both rifles!

Is the guess to be the difference between the slowest round in any rifle and the fastest round in any rifle? Or the largest difference of the average velocity in each rifle?
Is this muzzle velocity or downrange velocity?
This thing Saeed gave me to do is complicated enough without you asking quastions I cannot answer.
Saeed makes the rules and he told me the differnce between the fastest and slowest.
Walter, That's an emportant litdle detale of this much valuabull Xpertmentel condest!
Soa I have ona quession:
How many botdles of Vodka will it take ewe to judga 14 rilfes???

RaySenderoSo Walter,
If you were to find your numbers are hard to read and running together, I'll be glad to average the velocity for each rifle for you.
In the above case, I figure my guess will be 82.
If left on your own I figure the spread will be 427 or more.
