Pete seems like a decent guy. Kinda goofy iwth the tie and the pants and all.....
My money is on Kelly. He's the best rifle shot on the show.
He just didn't move fast enough and being first he should have sand bagged at least a shot off target after loading 2 or 3 on most of them. He just showed every one the sights were dead on and they only needed to load one round if they could hit a basketball at that distance.
Crap!
I knew I shouldn't have looked at this. I only got to watch like 15 minutes of last night's episode.
I'm surprised he couldn't cut the fuse, but even more suprised that he yanked the trigger on that last shot. Just shows that even experts can make mistakes.
Just remember - Fast is fine, but accurate is final!!!2. Shooting fast, while it is the new hotness in the gun rags, will get you nowhere fast. "Fast is fast"--bbbzzzzttt, thanks for playing, but you have taken your last shot.
I agree he shouldn't have loaded so many rounds because that definitely cost him time. OTH, I'm not sure I agree about the sights. I saw several of the contestants mess with the sights on the rifles, and seem to recall the voice over talking about that as well.
I noticed it looked like they were messing with the sights but it never gave a good look at exactly what they were doing. I think at most they may be pushing up a ghost ring type flip up sight.
Since Kelly is gone, my personal preference of the four remaining is:
1st - Peter
2nd - Chris
3rd -JJ
4th - Iain
I guess we'll see next Sunday.
The HK-pattern rifles have a rotary diopter-type rear sight with 4 different sized apertures that are calibrated for use at various ranges.
