I'll be bringing my A game for sure. The 39's did VERY well at 200 with 10x just slapping the rounds together without much case prep. I now have the "total package" as far as reloading tools and knowledge go, So we'll see what we can tweek out of them 39's. Plus I have a pound of 10X and 200 39'S to burn up. It just wouldn't seem like a match if I wasn't testing loads . It's more like a personal challange I think.If the 39's don't measure up,the 35's it will be. I hope EVERYBODY has time for their A game...I will

Looks like someone is trying to start the head games.
I'll send you some N-133. I won't need it, I'l be shooting Benchmark.

That powder you sent me looks like Lilgun Here's a 39BK 10X 5 shot group from last spring. I'm glad I kept all/most of my targets. 10X is no slouch I also saw a .124 group with 10X at 100 in my file.

Sounds like fun
And another good excuse to go to the range. It'll probably cost me a day of vacation to do it.
Re: 204um Praire Dog Postal Shoot
ssv1761982 Welcome to the forum.
A day at the range is vacation.
Weatherman says the temp outside today will feel like 11 degrees factoring in the wind. Got a ladder with 70gn Bergs and N-530 in 223 that I'm itching to unload. Should be fun.

Savage VLP + NF 12x42 + 35 Bergers = .

Re: 204um Praire Dog Postal Shoot
I have started printing the targets. I will start sending them out next Monday (2/26/08).
On a side note. Due to a less than stellar ending to 2007 and an extremely busy start to 08 I have finally managed to get the targets ready to send out to last shoots winners. I'll also include the chamber length gauges with the targets. Sorry for the delay gang.

Re: 204um Praire Dog Postal Shoot
I would like to participate. Never did a postal match before...have a few questions (it may seem like I didn't read this post, just trying to understand)
1. How do I get the targets mailed to me?
2. Are there separate targets for 100yard groups and 200 yards?
3. Since there are no spots to shoot at on the target, do I shoot for the center or head or what?
4. I don't understand the chop, flip, and ?? scoring but if I can shoot a bug hole, i ain't skeered lol.
5. What's the cost?
