@Rush nice target handed in last night with his tikka t1x

Not applicable but a cherry picked group, using some old CCi standard, rest of the groups were degusting. Bit that got me is I adjusted scope forwards and forgot to tighten the back rings at the base. LOL

@flock imagine 5 more of them i run that one group over my software very quick and rough not carefully like i do with the entry's but it was 0.261

Thanks ---- Go for it Guys -- the quarter inch is extremely do able. Question are you allowed to submit more than one target?

Ofcorse you are @flock @Tentman has already done about 6 spread across bolt action and semi automatic class
But only one target will count ie if you have a .5 target already and you hand in a .3 I will be deleting the.5 off the spreadsheet
Meaning that one person can’t get 1st 2nd and 3rd
Spread the love in other words
So yeah hell you can enter 50 targets if you want but only the best one will count you could turn it into a personal comp where the goal is to beat the last target you submitted

You can enter all 3 categories so if you’re good you might get in the top 3 for all of them

2nd @Tentman 0.703 @Rush shot a respectable target with his Kidd today well done

Gonna shoot the challenge myself tomorrow finally will level 4 and then a week of bad weather for the 1st week of level 3
Now the question is what do i shoot class wise
Was thinking of taking all 3 but that would be 75 rounds of full Concentration
Plus zeroing as I put new scopes on all the rifles over lockdown might be a bit much
Definitely want to shoot classic
But what else mmmm

my target for classic


my target for semi


and i found out my cz 455 hates eley match

Can't get many target pics off photobucket now but just for fun here are some groups from my working bunny rifles. Targets just 1/2" circles drawn on pieces of A4 at the time. Some wee hunters surprisingly accurate - up with setups worth thousands now. First target is a Marlin 60DLX Anniversary model semiautomatic - average for 4 groups a fraction under 0.4":




The second set of groups is also from a Marlin - a model 60DL semiautomatic. Deadly accurate wee shooter - well capable of quarters at 50m. This set with hunting Aussie HV Powerpoint:





Absolute treat to use precision shooters like this wee 60DL in the field. It shot huge numbers of bunnies and cost me $225. Never got round to running match ammos through it:

Nice Shooting, that batch of Eley Match is no slug! (pun intended)

Found some old photos. Cherry picked of course Bruno 2 and like an idiot I sold it.....

yeah bloody good stuff wind was a bugger today maybe 20-30kmph cross wind
was trying to shoot in the luls but certainly not ideal

I can't print out targets (computer in shop and no printer) so made up a target to see how my shooting is. Well it isn't the best but good enough for rabbits. Rifle is a Krico 5 shot bolt action and ammo is the Aussie made subsonic in 40 gr, aim points are right about an inch. This target isn't for the comp just wanted to see how I went , need to improve try again another day soon.

@Mooseman do you want me to mail you some targets

I will message you when I get my computer back, this I pad hasn't been set up for e mail. I will practice a bit more on my home made targets. I use tracking ink it has a sponge rubber applicator which is pretty much one inch so close to the offical size.
I will let you know should be soon.
