Thread: NZHS Rimfire Postal Shoot

Hmm that's right I was going to do this.bloody well clean forgot about it sorry gillie.
And if I remember correctly the printer is low on ink.but will do it even if it's not this week

I am a bit grumpy I didnt get this done.
Had a go with Stagasourus @ 100 and we were going pretty bloody good with subs. Scoring well into the 40's.
Easier I spose when you are just mucking around.
Hope you do another Gillie!!

Another couple of NI entries out tonight. One good one bad so should weight out as average
I think an Island has to have more than 1 entry to be valid too. Come on you sheep shaggers on the west coast with your excuses.

So if the south needs more than one entries I take it we won

Bah ive been up the range to do it twice now.....

Had a scope problem so ive put the kahles 3-9 on..
Then I keep getting rained off so hopefully tomorrow i get to finish it......
My cat scored in the 40s so thats a start

If this had had a better response i would suggest a JW15 shoot with the junk optics they came with........level field.
There must be thousands of them out there.

mine will also be done today but i have to check the rules??

Do they allow shooting jackets an slings? etc?

Shooting jackets are fine. The sling is fine but you have to start the time limit in the magpie and possum target with it off your arm. You can have the rifle loaded and all ready to go just don't put the sling on your arm till the time limit starts. The cat you can do want you want to get ready for the 30 seconds.

Sweet as have that sorted will do mine today............also with .17hmr have put the target barrel on my feinwerkbau so will give it a burn with apeture sights............................................ .tho have tapped the back cricle over the targets so i have something to aim at

hmmmm... dunno about that tui_man2. Modifying the target to give it a distint aiming mark... you can't do that on a actual animal. Using apeture sights is your choice, centering the target over the top of a larger target to give you something to aim at i am ok with. Not having a distint aiming mark on the targets is part of the challenge of the shoot and so i do not think putting something over the top of the target to make it easier is in line with the spirit of the shoot.

Of course this is a postal shoot so i won't really know what you did with your targets either.

Sheezus, got a whole new understanding of your score if you guys were starting unloaded!

Scored Kiwijames and Ginga's entries this morning, both north island entries. kiwijames was correct one score was above the team average the other was below it. Ginga shot a very good cat target.

I was hoping someone would enter with a 17 caliber buit noone has yet. Everyone has entered using a .22lr.
