Will I win a prize for taking last place.
Maybe a cold beer?
Or should I just go cry in the corner.
But I did have fun doing it.
*** 2014 Postal Match Results ***
First let me thank all of you that participated in our site Rim Fire Bench Rest Postal Match here and that sent in targets to be scored. We had some exceptional shooting from our members and a good time doing this match. As a side note the site made $238 off of the match after expenses. Thanks to all that joined in. I had 24 targets received here for scoring in the categories set up for the match, 11 Target Rifle Scoped , 4 Target Rifle Iron Sights , 6 Sporting Rifle Scoped and 3 Sporting Rifle Iron Sights. Tie scores were determined by the outside measurement of both 5 shot groups totaled with the venire caliper and smallest total as compared to the other targets results of the same score.

I shared this in another thread but since the shots were for this competition I'll share them again. This is the moment the my daughter hit the x ring. Even though we were hoping to perform better, you can see from the picture that we had fun as a family.
Thanks again guys for doing this shoot and I would love to see some of these sharpshooter in person some day.
Thanks.
