After participating in the .20 and under shoot at Saubier.com I thought it might be fun to do one over here.

So is there any interest around these parts?

I have the target design about done.

If you're not familiar with postal shoots here it is in a nutshell.

If there is enough interest...

You PM me your mailing address and let me know how many targets you want to shoot, one per class (classes to be determined). For classes I'm considering the following.

Factory Production

Factory Custom (Remington, Cooper...)

Custom (Stolle, Farley, Stiller...)

(All must be chambered in 204 Ruger.)

I mail the targets to you, you shoot them and return by the specified date (to be determined). There will most likely be a 60 day window, so you can pick your shooting conditions.

I measure the groups and post the scores. The winners in each class will get there targets returned in frames ready for display (they will also have bragging rights for the year). Winning score per class will be lowest aggregate group.


If there is enough interest we could make it an annual thing (I already have some ideas for next year). :twisted:





Note:

If you factory custom shooters want to shoot against Stolle, Farley, Stiller... Let me know and we'll just shoot two classes.

Most folks have access to a 100 yard range we will shoot this one at 100.

Since we are on the subject.

3 bulls for score (5 rounds each bull)

Oh Good Lord. I better get busy. I've had the 204 on the back burner waiting on a powder shipment. Just started playing with the 308's again but they don't count.
Might have to try a different powder :roll:

Well, your going to have to split the class's three times. Custom loading, factory loaded hornady, all others.

Then you'll have to split it 3 or 4 more times for bullet weights.

:twisted:

I've seen this with the rimfire guys, sounds fun. Though spliting the class's will be complicated. I know, I know, but some of us do not load yet, and we ALL know that will be the biggest factor.

PS. made an order to sinclair, so the journey has begun. :)

You make a good point on ammo, I do not want to alienate any shooters so here is what I propose.

Factory Production / Factory Ammo

Factory Production / Any Ammo

Factory Custom (Remington, Cooper...) / Any Ammo

Custom (Stolle, Farley, Stiller...) / Any Ammo

Shouldn't the remington be under factory, and the cooper under custom?

My rifle is a factory Remmy 700 ADL but has been tweaked a little so is that factory custom or factory production?

Either way, I'm in!
:D
