Morning practice for EBR

[Centercut]

Decided I needed to practice more with the .30 Bobcat for the EBR. Printed out some 3/4 inch boxes (thanks Nick - @socaloldman). 

Shot the first 6 boxes at 95 yards. Looked OK, but something just not right. Shooting JSB 50.1 at 860 FPS. 

Looked the gun over and then it hit me. Damn, those boxes really looked small! That was because I had the Hawke Sidewinder 6.5-20x42 at 10x. Cranked it up to 20x, and things got much better...

A couple of weeks ago, I was practicing some FT and my range card was way off. I checked the hammer spring and it was where is usually is. I just couldn't figure out why my range card was off. Then I went in to shoot some off hand and the targets looked much smaller than they normally do. I had the scope at 30x instead of 50x! That will do it every time!

Is there no scope magnification rules for EBR? Also is it timed? How many shots/targets and time limit to finish? Maybe need to do an east coast EBR.
