I talked to several members today about doing this fun shoot. And I was told by one that their gun was not very accurate. And I was told by another that they were not a very good shot.

The idea behind this is that it is a FUN SHOOT. It is not a serious competition. The last one we did with Prime Sports (Henry) I shot in the wind and did not do very good. The idea is to go out to the range and have some fun. Compete against yourself. Go out with your friends and compete against them. But don't make an excuse to NOT do it. This is something we can all do and at the end of the month we can have a meet and greet and compare notes and have a good time doing it. It doesn't cost much and you can include your family and friends in this. BTW, this is the perfect way to get someone into shooting and to get them to participate here in the forum.

Yeah it was fun to shoot 22s on paper after a long break. I shoot 22s@100m at the silhouette side often but haven't shot for groups or score for a long time. It was really fun, but humbling, and hope to be doing it more. I didn't shoot the designated targets today, I was just trying to get a feel for the wind calls. I'll try and print some out and give it a go next weekend.

The wind is weird at 50 yds but even more unpredictable at 100 at the rifle range. I will be shooting for score next Sunday after some sighting in of my rifle. If anyone cares to join me I will be shooting on Sunday morning 8am to 10:30am.

J has set the bar in a previous post. He has a very good score. Let's see what the rest of you can do...

BTW, next month is going to be shooting while standing with no sling, supports of any kind, and no leaning against the bench or posts. You think you were humbled by this months challenge? Wait til next month!  :shake: :shake: :shake:

So far J is leading Class 1 with an awesome score of 95. Anyone think they can do better? J? You going to try and beat this score yourself?

I realize I created this and the rules so I am not going to allow myself into the competition. So I thought since I was having so much fun shooting at the star targets today that I would do it with different ammunition and different rifles. Here are my results for today:

Target 1
2aHawaii Name:Inspector
Score: 80 
Class :1
Scope: BSA Sweet 22 (shot @ 12x)
Rifle make:Ruger 10/22 Modified/Heavy Barrel
Ammo: SK Rifle Match
Weather conditions: Wind 10-15mph onshore winds
Excuses: Hung Over (Pounding headache)

Target 2
2aHawaii Name:Inspector
Score: 105 
Class :1
Scope: BSA Sweet 22 (shot @ 12x)
Rifle make:Ruger 10/22 Modified/Heavy Barrel
Ammo: SK Standard Plus
Weather conditions: Wind 10-15mph onshore winds
Excuses: Hung Over (Pounding headache)

I am going to be shooting this most of the month and posting my different targets. I dare all of you to try and beat my best.

Finally got all materials in to complete the grand prize.

Ever wanted to go shoot pistol, at the spare of the moment,  and forgot to bring your pistol target?  I know I have, I live in Ewa Beach, so that really sucks! Lol

This target frame features a few things, IMHO, that make it perfect for you.

1. Light weight and size that breaks down small enough to store and leave in the trunk of your car or back of your truck.

2.  Large knobs to tighten and secure the frame in the closed or upright position.

3.  Robust clips to not only securely attach your target back, but also to clamp to the KokoHead target stand.  This will ensure your frame doesn't blow over on those, ever so often, windy Hawaii Kai days.

Also included will be one water proof target backer.  Because if it ain't rainin, we ain't trainin...

Have you field tested your design yet? This could be a kimo- 841gun test review topic.

yes, I've been running the prototype for quite some time.  I usually use a regular cardboard backer, and plain ol' wingnuts, but I wanted to present a little more refined version.

Took a shot at it today.  Figured I'd do a warm up using a different target (1st image) thought I did pretty well. I reshot my misses so that's the reason for a few with two shots at them. Changed to the star targets and  ammo (ran out of Green Tag), Damn this is hard! Especially without a rear bag. Hella fun though!! Got to talk story with Inspector. Beautiful Anschutz!!

Username: Bushido
Score: 120? Several borderline shots that could go either way.
Class: 1
Scope: Millet TRS-1
Rifle: 10/22
Ammo: SK
Weather: Have no clue. 5-15 tradewinds?
Excuses: Stressing because I was running out of ammo and hoping i could complete the target. Lol
