Mr. Completely's August 2016 e-Postal Contest

Merle, one of the regulars in the e-Postal contests, is the host for August, right here on True Blue Sam.  It appears to be an easy target, but since I seem to blow easy shots regularly I will have to try it and see how difficult it is.

Here is a taste of bowling pin shooting. It requires a solid hit, as the pin must be knocked off
the table – not just knocked down.

Go here for the target. http://targetz.com/targetzlib/20022.pdf

For each handgun and rimfire rifle print two of these targets.

For centerfire rifles print one target, to keep ammo costs down.

PISTOL DISTANCE: 25 ft/10 yards, whichever is available

RIFLE DISTANCE: as noted in Classes

PISTOL SHOOTING POSITION: Standing, unsupported.

RIFLE SHOOTING POSITION: bench, prone, sitting, any other safe position that does not
include a cradle.

Folks with disabilities may make the necessary position adjustments.

 Take five shots at the bowling pin. Try to get them off as quickly as safely possible, as a real
match is a timed event. Repeat for handguns and rimfire rifles.

Classes:

 1. .177/22 cal air pistol, iron sights/non magnified red dot (air or CO2 powered)
 2. .177/22 cal air pistol, magnified optical sights (air or CO2 powered)
 3. rim fire pistol, iron sights/non magnified red dot
 4. rim fire pistol, magnified optical sights
 5. center fire pistol, iron sights/non magnified red dot
 6. center fire pistol, magnified optical sights
 7. rim fire rifle iron sights/non magnified red dot (25 yds)
 8. rim fire rifle magnified optical sights (25 yds)
 9. center fire rifle iron sights/non magnified red dot (50 yds)
10. center fire rifle magnified optical sights (50 yds)

Anything else; airguns, crossbow pistols, airsoft, muzzle loaders, etc. Shoot it and send it in.

Shoot as many guns as you can, multiple guns per class are fine (as inspired by Mr. C) but only
one entry per gun please.

SCORING: 3 points for shots totally inside the body of the pin, not touching the line at the
edge.

2 points for a shot inside the body of the pin, but touching the line of the edge.

1 point for a hit on the outside edge of the pin; as marginal hits may just knock the pin down,
but not off the table.
