Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
Any way to verify that the postal system is functioning?

If you ask them they will say YES.. Send a certified letter to someone, request signature and return notice and you will see if that one worked anyway. Bill K

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
I can send you a PM when your target arrives. I must warn you that I only check my PO Box once a week because there aren't many targets showing up. I'll check it more often the closer to the end of July.

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
I checked my Post Office Box today and didn't find any new targets. I'm going out of town tomorrow and won't be back till Sunday. I wanted to repost the address to send targets before I leave early in the morning. So far, I have only received two targets SO I'm assuming that everyone is taking advantage of the rules and waiting till they have shot their absolute best group before mailing their targets to me. REMEMBER, the top three groups will receive the coveted Winner Icons pictured on page two of this thread. There won't be another 5 Shot Challenge till next year, SO get out there and put some rounds on paper! Only one entry per member please. You can print as many targets as you like, BUT you can only submit one for scoring.
GOOD LUCK

I mailed my target today. 39 Gn SBK. I am pleased with my shots but I do know there will be a lot of shooters with better targets. It was fun. Thanks to Skipper.

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
Targets are slowly starting to show up here in hot and humid Cypress, Texas. Members are taking full advantage of the rules making sure they have taken their best shot before mailing targets. We're going to have to wait a few days after the deadline to be sure everyone's targets are in and accounted for prior to announcing winners. I don't want to have to amend the winner's list after it's been posted. That would be bad! If you are mailing your target on the last day(s) please send me a PM so I will know to wait for it. Thanks.
I'm getting excited!!!

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
I got out to the range early this morning and shot 20 targets with 5 shots each. Sure wish this was a 4 shot challenge! Anyway, sending in the best one. If they were live rats I killed 99 of 100. I won't be taking home any honors with this target but it's fun as usual. Thanks Skipper for doing this again. Randy.

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
I fished 3 targets out of my PO Box this morning. Looks like things are picking up. Several members have informed me that they mailed targets today, so I will wait for them to arrive before the final tally. Must admit though, some are looking real good.

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
Sent my target in yesterday. Not the best shooting I'v done but definitely not the worst. Still had fun getting the Savage out to the range for some quality time.

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
Please, mail me your targets, today!! Some members are mistaking this competition with Jaxteller's monthly no rules competition. This is a postal competition held once a year. You must mail me your target. Get it in the mail today and send me a PM stating so. I will wait for it to arrive before announcing winners.
Right now, I am waiting on three targets. PM me if you are mailing yours today. Thanks!!!

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge
Shot 2 targets this morning and things went from from bad to worse. Ran a bore snake through and fired One last 5 shot target. Nothing spectacular but it will be mailed today. I really wish I wasn’t the procrastinator that I am. 🤪
