Since Thanksgiving will be here before we know it and the price of turkeys is supposed to be about double from last year you can shoot your own turkeys this month for free!
25 yds offhand unless you have physical issues that prevent shooting from the standing offhand position - then you can shoot from a sitting position with rifle supported by your arms. If this isn't possible either, go ahead and shoot the target anyway and have some fun, but state that you shot it from the bench and I won't include it in the ranking with the offhand shooters.
Handgun shooters can shoot the target from 15 yds offhand.
This target will be 10 shots - 2 shots at each turkey. Scoring as printed on the targets. Please score your own targets and include info on your equipment and a picture of your rifle/handgun, if possible.
Please look closely when you score your target - 1/2 of the ball diameter must be inside the scoring ring to count, otherwise you take the lower point value. It's easiest to score if you lay the target on a flat surface and smooth the holes to better see if the 1/2 the ball is inside the scoring ring. Since the stakes are so high I want everyone to shoot their best possible scores and everyone is scoring their targets the same way.
I hope I can see this target better than last month's target! I have some new, taller sights that I am going to install on my Kibler .32 - the original sights are just too small for my old eyes!
Have fun and I hope everyone has a safe and healthy Thanksgiving holiday this year.
