Mark,
That makes sense. 55 FMJ is not exactly a wind cheating round! The 6.8 guys kick the velocity up and hope, since none of the 6.8 rounds have any kind of a decent BC, (well, they kick it up and hope if they handload, or they use Silver State Ammo combat loads and hope!) BUT...to not slap the Bipod on makes no sense if you want to win/place/show!
If I had my F class rifle under those circumstances, I would probably still have shot it, over an AR with 55's! There is just NO consistency to 55's in any kind of wind, that pattern you describe is pretty typical!
