I was just wondering if there would be any interest in another stock Military Surplus Rifle Postal Match? Firing cast boolits, of course. Now that the weather is starting to improve for most of the country I thought this would be a good time to start.
I'd be willing to run the match, collect & score targets, and post results.
So far this is what I've come up with for a course of fire:
Stage #1 - Five rounds fired at 50 yards, offhand.
Stage #2 - Five rounds fired at 100 yards, prone.
Stage #3 - Five rounds fired at 100 yards, kneeling.
Stage #4 - Five rounds fired at 100 yards, sitting.
Stage #5 - Five rounds fired at 100 yards, benchrest.
Rifles used would be limited to original configuration military surplus rifles using stock iron sights; and firing the caliber that model of rifle was chambered for while in military service.
As far as scoring I was thinking we could shoot for raw score on this one; instead of shooting for group size. I'm looking into a suitable target for this that would involve an 8" sighting black center that fits on an 8.5"x11" sheet of paper and could be sent through the mail to me for scoring.
Looking for any interest at this point to see if we can make this a go.:Fire:
