Count me in.  Thanks.

Jeff, I'm good with smaller size target :)   I used the 10m target because ..well it was what I had, I got most shots in the black part, using a hand rail so i feel that the size of black only is cool:)  
     One other thought I had was that... not everyone will have same equipment so more circles may possibly help bring more shooters to the bench? :)    Tony.

We are rolling along, all we need to do is select a target, and we can start these matches.   .Bill

I am in Bill. Just pick the target we use and I will punch some holes..:) Thanks

Would like to join in for this match....but no place to "sit up" and shoot 30 meters.  That's why I've to shoot prone in the "PCP Rested Rifle 30 Yds" match....to conceal from roving eyes.....

Bill,
       Count me in:)  I now have a bench/table set up:)
           Question I have, will it  be pcp/ springer or both? I saw a post about PCP rifle match at 30 meters is why I ask:)
           Also is this where the target will be located once its picked out ?http://www.gatewaytoairguns.com/airguns/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=16018&posts=3&start=1
 Ready to shoot, Tony.

To better accommodate more of our members that have limited space, we will make this a 30 yard match.

And due to the PCP shooters already having a bench rest match, this match will be for all other than PCP rifles.

We still need a target ! I do not shoot from a bench, and I understand that many of you are real good at shooting off a bench, so I don't want this match to be too easy, but then again, I would still like it to be FUN for Everyone ?

SO PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR THOUGHTS ON A TARGET THAT "YOU" WOULD ENJOY SHOOTING !

Lets get this up and moving before it gets to hot to shoot outside !

Thanks for your input !

Bill

Bill:

This is a 22 rimfire target used on another forum for their matches, 25 yards open sights, 50 yards, scoped.  Cutting the outer ring scores 1 cutting the center dot scores 2.  Pretty simple.  

http://www.mytargets.com/target22%20circles%20x20.pdf

just a suggestion.

I am also attaching a pdf and jpeg of the file (without the header) to the thread.

Correction:

Actually, I just re-read the scoring.  "Inside the ring" is 1, a bulls eye is 2, hitting all 5 inside the ring in each 5-bull column scores a bonus of 5 points:  Maximum score = 60 points.

Bill, I agree with you on the hard target but still fun . Here is a thought , I found these in the GTA library... http://www.dundeesportsmansclub.com/dundee%20pic/PDF-Target/25ftRifleTargetOffical.pdf   http://www.dundeesportsmansclub.com/dundee%20pic/PDF-Target/6SmallRedCircle.pdf   It has both small center which is hard for those tight groupers to compete head to head and some friendly extra rings to catch a few points instead of a zero for the new comers like me:)???  also has nice black center so my more experience eyes  can find the target at 90 Feet LOL :)  BTW This is just my thoughts to make things more fun  :) .. Or someone who knows how, could even make a similar target especially for this event? hard in the middle  and easier outside, Tony.

That knocks me out, I only have 1 rifle. Considering another but it'll prob be a pcp also.
I may still need to down load your target and shoot it for unposted fun though...

[Big_Bill]

OK, Now lets pick a target !  I can't be of much help here, selecting a target has never been required by me !  They were provided, and I fired upon whatever was supplied.  So let's pick something with some degree of difficulty, and see how she floats :-)  http://www.glockfaq.com/targets.htm --- And Tony, thanks for your time and effort, however the Dundee did not print well on my printer, but others that have been submitted do ?? they printed very light, without dark center and I printed them on my normal DRAFT setting ? I had no problems with any of the other targets offered.  So every one please select a target that you would like to shoot at, and NO OSAMA TARGETS PLEASE ! Thank you,  Bill

Ok  I'll place a vote for the,  20 Targets w/3 Rings.      http://www.glockfaq.com/targets.htm   Tony.

[Magnum]

Ok seeing that  I have not done this  before... I decided to do some experimenting:) And now believe that the20 or 30 Targets With 1/4"  0.25 Rings are more of a challenge for those with pellet stacking equipment and  still fun for those without that is my revised vote :)  I promise this is my final post on all this.  I will shoot at anything, Tony.

[Gene_SC]

I like the 20 Targets w/3 Rings.

Okie Dokie

I will shoot the 20 targets, 3 rings target for this week's match unless I hear otherwise.  I take it we will be shooting 20 rounds from a bench rest.  One of the earlier posts says no PCP's for this match, so no PCP's.  looking forward to it!  I think I can only get ~ 31-32 yards, not 30 meters, though.
