Rests
The only restriction regarding rests is that no gunvises are
allowed. Sandbags and/or simple rests are perfectly fine. Most
entrants will be firing from a shooting bench.
Ranges
Divisions One, Two and Five, 100 yards.
Divisions Three and Four, 50 yards.
Targets
Any paper target of your choice or design is allowed.
Each target will be shot at the appropriate yardage and
consist of a 5 shot group...no more, no less, or it will be
disqualified. Please don't circle the 5 shots you want scored out
of a larger grouping, that won't count.
Let me make this more clear.....each group must be 5 shots.
Multiple groups may be on the same target....but only 5 shot
groups will be scored. You may circle the group you want scored,
if there are numerous groups on the target. The thought here is
that you might be entering one target with groups from
different rifles that could be scored in different divisions or
classes, or submitting the best group of several fired from the
same rifle.
The overall spread of your entry will be scored, by measuring
center to center of the farthest two shots of the group
submitted and placed in the appropriate class.
There is no need to confine yourself to one rifle, you are free
to submit ONE group for each Division and Class. Only ONE
group from an individual rifle may be entered. Your results will
be scored and placed accordingly for each submission.
Each group sumbitted must contain the following information,
noted near the intended group: Your handle here, Model of
rifle, ammunition particulars and type of sight used.
Please enclose a note informing me where to return your target
to, should you want it back. No need to loose a bragging target
because of this.
Ammunition
Each entrant will fire whatever ammo they desire.
Rifle Configuration
All rifles will be in original configuration; no stock alterations,
free floating or glass bedding. Sight enhancments, as in white or
color on them is allowed, so that you may be able to see your
sights better.
This is an Honor System, please abide by all rules and regulations
to make this as fair a competition for everyone.
Cut off date for the match is December 30 or 31....whatever the
last day of the year is.
Well, that's about all I can think of now. Subject to editing, of
course.
I will provide a Post Office Box address soon so that you can send
them to me. Parallax has kindly allowed me to use the new logo
on the certificates and Papershooter has volunteered to design a
Framing Quality certificate for us to present.
Get to shooting everyone and let's make this a memorable event.
Should be plenty of joking and teasing when it is done. This is
surely going to be fun for all.
Thank you in advance for your participation. Looking forward to
getting lots and lots of targets to measure.
Thanks again for your interest and participation.
