Thanksgiving match

Post by Varmintmist »

Since the kids and wife shoot I told them all that there would be a match on Thanksgiving. 22 rounds, ammo and target supplied.
2 sighters any position. Walk and paste holes.
Return adjust. Without leaving the firing line..
5 slow fire prone
5 rapid fire prone. On a closed bolt with 5 in a mag on the ground and not in hand. On the command load fire 5 in 35 seconds
5 sitting rapid. Same
5 offhand.
Pull target to be scored in the kitchen.

The daughter lost, wife beat her by a single point so the daughter got the non coveted Yellow and Green award and all the dishes.

That is great, except, my whole neighborhood would be over if they knew that was going on👍

As long as they were willing to accept the yellow and green award, come one come all.

Free for the taking. It was fun. I was going to use a 600yd reduced for the slow prone, but there was a time factor so I went with two sighters and you cant check the target until you pull it. About 10 min for sighters walk and paste, then 15 or so for the match. Just get one target, make your course of fire easy to follow, and go for it.

The un-prize was kind of different.
