    Ko1M 2024 Results

    I usually recommend that King matches not be your first ELR competition. ELRSO Pro/Am is a great choice but whatever is near you is a solid choice. Safety First Tactical maintains the most comprehensive match schedule. Shouldn't be too hard to find on Facebook (if you are willing to go such...

    Laser vs A-Tip Velocity?

    Monolithics in larger calibers virtually always have lower engraving pressures than jacketed bullets.

    Ko2M 2024 Global Finals Registration

    Frank has been to a few matches but to the best of my knowledge has never shot in one. There are a lot of ELR matches now so unless you live in the People's Republic of California there is usually a match within an easy drive of where you live. I'd say that the actual number of active...

    So the problem with that is the occasions when a match uses a completely broken scoring system. Here is the same match with the scores calculated by their original standard, Ko2M with no multipliers and Ko2M standard. What is clear as day is that by any mathematically defensible scoring...

    Looks like a good start. As you say, all systems have bias. Refining any model to reduce that comes down to eliminating the extraneous influences where you can, so take this as advice on potential issues that are fixable What scoring system did you normalize against? Most functional scoring...
