Thanks crapshoot. One other question. Are all record shots fired at the same target, or is a new target posted for each distance?
I am going to make a feeble attempt to answer this question. I have never shot a Palma. I have shot Highpower. The scoring is close to the same. My brother is currently working with a Palma rifle and getting good results. He plans to shoot at Perry.
A high power match follows this scoring system
The targets are on sliding rails and as each shot is fired the targets are pulled down in a pit and marked. The score is recorded based on a 10 ring count. The target is run back up and the shooter fires another round till he has fired all shot for that string. There is no firing for group. After all relays are fired, the totals are tallied and the winner is declared by highest count. If a sixty shot course was fired the winning score could well be 599-30X, meaning he shot all tens, and one 9, with 30 X's. If the closest shooter was 599-29 X he comes in second. The x is a smaller circle with in the 10 ring. If a ring line is cut, regardless if the POI is on the outside of the line, the shooter will get the higher score.
I hope this helps to give an rudimentary understanding of the scoring system.
