Honor Shooting Competition for August

Recommended Posts

I saw this mentioned elsewhere but no one has done anything with it, so I'll take the inititave.

I'd like to change this up each month, but I figured this month I could start easy and gauge interest.

 

August Rules.

Gun: Rimfire, 2 divisions open sights and optics

Range: 50 yards

Target: TQ-4(P) NRA 100 yard small bore rifle target

# of Targets: 5 best

Shots per Target: 10

Possible Score: 500

Slings Ok, any position,

No rests, sand bags or similar - you have to hold the gun. propping your elbow on the table or the ground is fine.

 

Before the end of the month pick up some targets and your favorite rimfire and hit the range.

Total up your targets and how many X's as well as some gun info.

Example: just an example I'll post my true score when I do it.

The black center of the TQ-4(P) http://www.midwayusa...-package-of-100 appears to be the same as the 100 yd Hi Power MR31 target we use for slow prone http://www.munitions...etter/h300c.pdf

 

The rings are a bit tighter (tougher target) on the MR31, but it makes a good print-it-yourself target while you wait for your Midway order (that of course you're splitting with your buddies!)

The selected target is a popular one with gun shops. I got my last pack at Dicks. Buy a bunch we will use them often. They are not going to be hard to find and NJJohnnyGuy is correct, Midway has them for cheaper then many other sites.

I'm digging through my junk drawer to see if I could find a prize to donate...

 

so far I've found:

3 aaa batteries, a chewed piece of bubble gum, a hello kitty hair clip (daughter's, not mine..she's outgrown it though) and a black ATI cable lock (still in bag)

 

Winners choice !

I hit the range yesterday afternoon and shot my 10/22 scoped and Marlin 925 Iron.

Both seated using mars for support, I used a sling for the Marlin.

10/22, Scoped: 457 (x10)
