For this month I'm going back to an old stand by. Take a standard sheet of copy paper and draw two lines diagonally from corner to corner making an X through the middle.
Aiming spots are ok. Score is the total of the measurements of each shot from the center. Low score wins
Fire 5 shots only, misses count!
The shooting distance for this contest is 25 yards.
No do-over’s.
Only registered forum members may participate.
Only traditional, open iron sighted muzzle loading firearms; peeps are allowed under the condition you mark your target so I know you used a peep. (Tracking it)(NO Cannons) . Percussion or flintlock ignition. Cap and Ball revolvers are OK.
Single patched round ball only. No restrictions on caliber. (a patchless ball may be used if so desired)
Shots will be taken off-hand at the stated distance. Standing or seated is allowed, elbows unsupported by anything other than the shooters torso. In the event that a member is not physically able to hold his rifle up unsupported, a "prop-rod" that is supported only by the shooters torso, no part of which prop-rod may touch the ground, may be used to hold up the fore-end of the rifle.
Only original targets will be accepted. No copies, faxes, scan, etc.
Because I have to measure these scanned targets will not be accepted, sorry my overseas shooters.
Mutilated targets, or targets with more than 5 holes will be disqualified.
The center of the shot and the placement on the target will be determined by the judge.
Judges decisions are final.
Each contestant's score will be posted at the end of the contest.
Your member screen name must be written on your targets.
As stated above if you use peep sights that too must be marked on your target. (Pretty Please!)
