If we get some reasonable weather brween now and 31 Dec. I will join in.

Assume the gun used is not limited to Shiloh products. The target used cannot be a previously used target with earlier hits taped over.

I've shot the CBA (Cast Bullet Assn.) Postal for years and they are interesting, entertaining and instructional.

this doesnt count cause I shot it a couple days ago but just an example of what we need
Target
Rifle is shooting setup,
Size of Group (6 1/8 inch)
Load info

Cant get the target to rotate to the proper direction

( 8 inch Bull on a cardboard background just isn't enough to see clearly)
Need to make it bigger or try a white background

[TAA]

Might want to try a 200-yard Scheutzen target. It has a Red Bull one side and black on the reverse. You (at least for me) can see your hits better on the Red Bull. That bull is 12” dia. with a white background.

Brian,
If they're no objections I will use a clean cardboard like this with a single sticker for a target shooting a scoped rifle.

I will be changing between a scope and tang sights on and off and for the tang I will use a 25 ring target.
I have a new .44 mould I need to work with as well a .40.
Looking forward to get started and see how other shooters load work is working.

Whoops forgot the target it will look like this with a single sticker. I can see this fine at 200 using a scope.

Kurt,
Just wondering if you shot those 22 rimfire groups at 200yds...
And what is your 22 rifle rig???

[Kurt]

Yes I have Arnie. I shoot it often on the 200 yard range shooting at golf balls hanging from a string off the HP swinger target hanger
The rifle is a CPA I had build to match my Shiloh's 12# weight for off hand practice I can use in my yard so I don't scare the new neighbors It has a 28" Douglas premium barrel and I put a MVA Win scope on it when my eyes went down hill.
It shoots very well at 200. I shot this target at 200 using it testing different boxes of ammo.

Maybe I should use this for the postal match

That would be a good setup to shoot the winter Merrill
"Indoor/Outdoor" long range .22 gong matches.
Also, the 22 cal Schuetzen match at Eau Claire Nat'l Rifle Club's
annual ISSA Schuetzen Regional in June.
I Love to shoot 22s.
I have "graduated" to a couple of Martin International MK II rifles
for these 22 matches. One is a heavy barrel True Left Hand
and the other is a medium weight right hand on which I installed
a left hand stock. A Lyman STS 15X FCH-fine dot reticle rides on it.

TO Everyone:
there is a group called NARPM that holds 22 rimfire postal matches very month.
NARPM: National Rimfire Postal Match
Lots of fun. Similar to this new BPCR Postal.

It's so foggy here, I couldn't shoot a 100 yd target.

[art ruggiero]

gussy you punch the targets by hand at home then smudge them up a bit art

I should be able to play but I will probably have to send the picture to someone so they can upload it for me
