15 days left. Three returned targets so far.
Hint, Hint.
Did anyone not get their targets from me yet?

New guy questions: How do I get targets? Do I send money to get them or with the scored targets? Where to send them?

Dodging down pours in FL.
I need to get back to the range because the weather stopped me half way (maybe) through zeroing. I guess I could have done this before..... eh. -Fluffy |

Arch:
Turk would say to suck it up and get out there in the rain and shoot. Of course he has to shoot when he can regardless> SRO
Just moments after uttering "Why they couldn't hit an elephant at this distance", Major General John Sedgwick was killed by a
round to the cheek by a Confederate sniper at a range of 800yds on May 9 1864.

I could handle the rain but I'd be submitting a glob of mush as a target!
Hmmmm. Maybe I should go to a copy center and laminate the targets! I AM a genious!

Let's see - gently place the sharpened point of the pencil (Faber, of course) on the target, a quick rap with the mallet into the backing, withdraw
vertically and gently, careful to select the next hole in a seemingly random spot... Yeah, I should be done with my target soon.

Just make sure that Carlos doesn't sign his name on the back dead center of the x-ring. When I sent in my target I forgot to notice that I had completely
shot away any trace of his signature.You could cover all my shots with the proverbial quarter except for the powder burns.
 ....................
Hint: make sure that you use a ROUND #2 pencil instead of one of those 'octagon' sided ones. |

Sorry to hear about your wife's misfortune. Cataracts?
"Free" medicare can have some advantages, even if everyone is way overtaxed, and waits forever for everything. Even waiting to get on a waiting list. Been there done that. I can only let you shoot the Garand in the open match rifle category, if you're game? That's the only category that does not have to be Swiss this year. |
