    I might have to try that CFE223 powder. Seen some great groups of folks that use it. Went on the powder search today still very hard to find any at a decent price -getting low on Benchmark!

    Yeah I have been tempted to try the CFE 223 too but figure I'll stick with the H-335 a bit longer. Those two targets above where not mine though I have high expectations from those shooters the targets do belong too.

    I do plan to try some Viht-133 though.

    21 confirmed shooters! Looking good so far! Did I miss anyone up to this point?

    A bit shy on donated prizes, I'll try to track down some more. Thank you to those of you that have donated.

    It is GAME ON!

    Good shooting!

    Check out the donated prizes we have gathered so far! Much thanks to those of you that offered something. Also be sure to check out our own vendors that donated some items!

    So far with prizes donated we will be able to pay out top five positions for both "group size" and "score." That is 10 prizes minimum so far. I'll continue to add to the list as more prizes are donated. Remember only one prize per winner. Should one shooter place in top 5 for both group and score that shooter will choose only one prize, the additional prize will allow the next place finisher to collect a prize.

    top place finishers will get their choice of offered products below

    #1- small flat rate box of clean 22lr brass. I'll donate

    Any caliber rifle, or pistol for that matter, so long as the bullet is made from 22lr, 22mag or 17 HMR brass

    Here is what I put down in post #1 of this thread. In the future I may host a pistol caliber shoot for the bigger 40s, 44s, 45s and other various calibers made from brass cases.

    Here are the rules of this postal shoot.

    In short this is a compition for any caliber bullet made from 22lr, 22mag or 17HMR cases for jackets using any set of dies.


    RULES AND DETAILS

    Distance = 100yrds

    Caliber = your choice

    Fire arm = anything goes, bolt action, varmint/target rigs, hunting riffle, pistol, semi auto, scoped, open sights, All will be clasified into same catigory.

    Rests = Sure! The only thing we are grading is the target, feel free to shoot off hand if that is what you shoot best.

    Bullet/projectile = has to be swaged using 22lr/22mag/17hmr cases for jackets. Jackets can be trimmed. Any weight or style bullet is good to go. No commercial jackets or bullets or bullets made from jackets drawn from copper strip or cups. . Can be bullets you made or made by others. Can be made from any set of dies you wish. For those that do not swage bullets yet, simply post your interest here and we will figure out how to get you some bullets to load. Swagers are not allowed to profit from this fun shoot by attempting to sell bullets they made unless they have legal FFL-06 licence. Shooters are responsable for the safty of the loaded round. No liability should fall on the swager that made the projectiles.

    Loaded ammo = Obviously has to be reloaded and not necessarily by the shooter. No factory ammo.

    Eligibility = anyone can send in target. Encourage relitives, spose, friends, the more the better.

    Target =You can simply print the target pictured below from the following link. The target is located about half way down the page. Make sure you are using the same target as pictured below with 2 targets on same page!http://www.accurateshooter.com/shooting-skills/targets/

    Consider the .5" target the X ring and the 1" circle the 10 ring and so on.

    Actually went out and shot today. Trying to find a good load. 100 yrd shooting spot was occupied so I moved to my 200 yrds spot.

    well.... I got some good practice in today Need more practice. I was able to put 4 out of 5 under 1 moa with most groups. I'll keep working on it.

    Good shooting!

    BT

    p.s. Jon, I added you to the list. Do you need some bullets?
