That’s awesome! What state was it in?
We have two first place winners here today, Togo and Yours Truly! We had a get together today with some random targets and steel ringing in preparation for the main shoot which was an elimination match, 1/2 gallon water jugs at 100 yards benchrest. I hit the first jug and all the other 11 shooters missed which made me The Winner! The prize was a bunch of hoots and jeers about being lucky which I ignored while I was putting up my rifle for the day. Having been around for a lot of years I know when to quit. The rest of the sorry bunch of losers went on shooting for their lowly second and third place finishes while I just strutted around with a smile on my face. It was a good day.
Good on ya.
Great shooting!

Way to go! Now stop talking and fill it up!
Last week end my club had its winter fun shoot...novelty targets at 25 yards. I happily walked away with a ham after shooting "the head" off of the rattlesnake...twice! It was blustery and about 23 degrees here.

That is the ultimate 1st place prize.
Meat prizes are great, last October I took 3rd at this same club and won a what is called a marinated turkey tenderloin.
I will try, though my 54 flintlock isn't a tack driver yet, so I suffer in the flint only matches.

Nice! During a rendezvous last summer I participated in a 50 and 100 yard bench gun match and sqeaked out a 2nd place, they were paper targets. When I shoot 100 targets during matches my groups look like a shotgun blast.

If you’re near Jacksonville, there’s a BP shoot the second Saturday at the Gateway Gun Club. Shooting starts at 8 AM, get there by 7:15 to get ready. I drive 3 hours to get there, it’s worth it. Google “Treaty Oaks “.
very nice. congrats to all of you.

Congrats! Did you swab between shots?

I assume you meant swab, no I didn't. The Triple 7 shoots pretty clean.
