The Analog Kid has put together an e-postal match. Those of you that want to participate, download and print your targets, shoot them up on your own time, and then email them back to the Kid by July 25th. This match is for centerfire carbine rifles with a 20" or shorter barrel. It's also offhand, meaning none of that wussy laying on the ground or sitting at a bench rest.
Please take up your open-sighted, centerfire carbine rifle and place 10 rapid fire, off hand shots in this target at 50 yards.Targets will be scored as follows:
Center = 10pts
Small Black ring = 9pts
White ring = 8pts
Large black ring = 7ptsAll shots outside the large black ring will counted at zero points.
10 shots on the target. Every shot on the target over 10 will be counted at -5ptsShots that break a line will be scored at the higher value.
Ties will be decided at the measurement of total group size from the outer edges of farthest shots. Pictures or scans will then be necessary for scoring purposes.
Thanks for clarifing what "off hand" means. I was gonna shoot left handed, and after seeing AK's target I was thinking to myself "There is no way I'm going to do that good with my left hand".

Posted by: Acidman at July 11, 2005 11:14 PMFirst off, thanks for the linkage, RW.
As for any wobbly leg issues; kneeling is OK, just no supporting of the upper body.
I hope as many folks as possible compete and wish you all luck.
