postal match for 22cal boolits only

[rhbrink]

Unfortunately, I only have the NOE 55 grn. Yep- it is the 1-9.

Try it, it just might surprise you just don't try to push it too fast 1800 f/s plus or minus. Now if you want to shoot real fast you might try a rifle barrel without lands and grooves don't know about accuracy though!

well darn!! I wanted to join in the fun but thought it was too late. this is what I get for just reading the post date and not reading all the thread. please do another one soon!! I will read much more carefully next time!

[Bullshop]

I am real busy trying to catch up on orders and getting the last caribou butchered up and chores and yada yada what ever. Anyway I hope to get all scores in order tomorrow and begin the prize distribution process.

[BT Sniper]

Let me know who to send the two seperate boxes of swaged bullets to.

Good shooting guys.

So how much Caribou is in the drawing?

[JonB_in_Glencoe]

mmmm Caribou jerky
But If I had my drothers,
I'd have some of what my Native cousins in Aniak call "Half-dried"
they take the Belly meat of King Salmon,
dry smoke it about half way, then freeze it.
then just boil it like lobster to prepare it...or roast at low temp (maybe 275º)
It's so rich, there is no need to dip in Butter.
it tastes like it already has been dipped.

Can ya hear her, can ya hear the fat lady singing? Remember Neil Young in the 60's, Its - o-o-o-ver-er.
Wow this was the most fun postal match I have done. I went through half of the 3000 gas checks I got from Blammer when this started.
I am astounded at the level of accuracy contestants have achieved. Here are the scores in order of smallest to largest, smallest being the winner.
Congrats to RHBrink for the winning score of .294" followed by stubshaft with two entries at .431" and .442", then TCFAN with .618", Bullshop .660", Jon B in Glencoe .698", Bullshop Jr. .753", rugerfan 1.301" and Greg with 1.388"
I say all are winners and thank you all for participating.
Next I will throw these names into a hat and have my oldest daughter Christian age 10 draw them. I will list the prizes available and choice will be given in the order drawn.
Stay tuned!

[stubshaft]

Congrats rhbrink!

It was definitely alot of fun but the kicker was the shot closest to center. It was like shooting a benchrest match combined with a hunter match.

Thanks alot for hosting it Bullshop.

[Bullshop]

OH and by the way an interesting tidbit on how well this went is the average for all 9 entries is .7316" Incredible that 8 people shooting several different rifles and cartridges all shooting 22 cal cast boolits 108 shots in all and averaged .7316"
We are living the good old days of cast boolits.
Thanks to all and God bless!

[BT Sniper]

Boat Tail Sniper I like that one. Maybe I should go by it. Actually BT is my initials but I'll get Jr. some great 44 cal bullets on the way. Good shooting guys.

Thanks to BullShop for doing so much for this match, along with everyone that donated
the prizes.

I didn’t expect to be in the winners circle so it took me a few moments to decide…


I want a box of Bullshops ~ 6.5 Caribiner Boolits

I have a 6.5 JDJ 14" Contender barrel that I’d like to frustrate myself about.
should/could make me certifiable coo-coo


again, thanks to everybody that participated in this match

[Ranch Dog]

This evening there is a TLC225-50-RF heading to the southern most State in the Union! Congratulations shooters, well done. Been to busy to join in. A lot of mold and tractor time, busy time of the year!

[stubshaft]

Thanks RD and everyone else who made this happen.

[rhbrink]

Thanks to everyone that made this happen and the especially nice gifts, Bullshop, Ranchdog, BT Sniper. This was a very fun thing to do and my first postal match, hope that we get to do it again. I would like to receive the RD225-50 boolits.

Thanks again,

Richard

[PatMarlin]

Congratulations everyone!

NOW lets do one in 30 cal. How bout' lever action category? Daniel?

I bought an old Korean War Vet, close friend and neighbor of mine a 30-30 Marlin 336 circa 1970's micro groove last year and he's never shot it yet. It would be the perfect excuse to get him out.

His daughter is back east waiting for an operation, and it's being held up for politcal BS reasons. She has a rare condition and only one Dr. in the US that can do it, but the hospital does not want to be held liable so they are holding it up. Long story. She may not make it. He needs cheering up.
