Anyone interested in shooting some handgun postal matches around here?
Offhand? BR? Open sight? Scoped? Rimfire? Big bore?

Off hand as far as you want. If you get out there, we will need bigger than 8 1/2" X 11"
I will shoot what ever.
...............I have a nice K-38 I could use both offhand and benched.
.................Buckshot

For your shooting pleasure, see the Double Action Postal Match.

Vis Sis Mis!
All you need to hunt bears,even grizz is a .22 cal handgun--even a small derringer. Key is dont hunt alone. If a bear attacks, all you need to be able to do is outrun your buddy and you use the handgun to shoot him/her in the leg.
You don't have a smoothed over S&W double action revolver? Buy one...you deserve nice things.Originally Posted by GregP42
Well, it looks like there's enough interest, next step is formats...
Any druthers?
How about:
Offhand 25 yds
BR open sight 25 yds
BR scope 50 yds
BR would be groups size of course, but which target do we want for offhand?
Rimfire and C/F different targets?
