Thanks for all the offers on hazmat removal guys, but I think I will hang on to this one

You guys may not know this but my job tittle is Hazardous Waste Management Training coordinator.
I only have 27 yrs on the job.
I only mention this because proper disposal takes a pro.
Send it to me and I promise compliance with fed,state and local regulations

Is that the one you got for $80, or is that the Mossberg you got with the scope?

That was the one I got from RC Guns for $150, and yes it came with a Weaver B4 scope

[covingtonhouse]

So I headed out to Laguna Seca today with the rifle and 6 boxes of ammo and my rsnge box to shoot the 50 and 100 yd scoped targets but luckily for the leaders I forgot my targets.

[sando]

What a drag! I've been there though - very frustrating...

[10xhobby]

Happy Easter everyone, I hope you all have a great day with family and friends

all targets shot with a 10/22: hogue overmolded stock, tech sights, sporter barrel, stock trigger. shot on bench, with a soft rest.

A Place to Shoot, just north of Santa Clarita (north of los angeles)


First scoring target - 109


Pretty happy with this

Second scoring target - 117 + 4 (pair of touching shots) = 121

Welcome to the Matches. It's great that your son is involved with the sport also. Keep up the good work.

I got a chance to sneak in one more target for March. 124
I went to South Bay Rod and Gun, beautiful day around 71 deg. and slight breeze coming in from my 6.
JC Higgins with stock peep sights (Thanks Geedog!). I had no idea how much I would improve every time I shoot with these things. They sure are fun!
Still not going to give a few of you a run but I'm not complaining.

I shot the two lower targets first and saw I was low. I still need to find my sight picture but the un-hooded front post is hard to keep crisp. I did get a front hood (THANKS GeeDog!) I plan to install soon.
HAPPY EASTER Ya'll

Nice shooting buddy !! but I want to know how you got away to the range on Easter Day ????

[FredoSD]

Thanks Steve, I was surprised to find the range was open today so I took advantage, wide open choice of lanes. I even got pulled into shooting one target during a apple seed event that was going on. I have not shot in the pron position since basic Training 1974. "OUCH" my aching back.

No kids and the wife was glued to the TV watching hockey. We are huge hockey fans. I was home in plenty of time to make her a nice Easter dinner though.

Nice shooting this month everyone!!

Cant wait to see how everything tallys up for the month, lots of improvements and new people joining us!

April Targets!!

Download the targets and print on 8.5 x11 inches paper. Shoot and score your target, take a picture of the target or scan it (your choice) and upload to this thread. Most folks use a web site such as “Flickr.com” and then link to the picture of the target.

25 Yard Irons: See attachment below. .
Take 3 shots at each target for a total of 12 shots. Score your target as indicated on the target.

50 Yard Irons: See attachments below. There are 3 targets to choose from. All are the same except the 3 rings in the center are different colors. Take 5 shots on each target for a total of 10 shots. Score your target as indicated on the target. This will be a PRIZE TARGET

100 Yard Irons: See attachment below. There are 2 targets to choose from. Both are the same except the 3 rings in the center are different colors. The idea is to give a better sight picture to iron sight and pistol shooters. Take 5 shots on the target. Score your target as indicated on the target.

50 Yard Scoped: See attachment below. This is a Terrorist target. Take one shot at each Terrorist. If you miss and hit the hostage subtract the appropriate score from your overall score. (Hint, its not always advised to go for the Head Shot). This has been one of the most difficult targets for these matches. This will be a PRIZE TARGET

100 Yard Scoped: See Attachment. . Take 5 shots at the center bullseye. Take one shot at each of the small bullseyes but only the center 10 will count. If you miss the 10, no score.

15 yard Pistol Target, Iron Sights or Red Dot. No Magnified Optics.
Use the 50 yd Iron Sight Target: See Attachment
Take 10 shots at the target (5 shots at each bullseye) . Score your target as indicated on the target. Target may be shot off hand or from a bench rest. Off hand shooters will compete separately from bench rest shooters. The Bench Rest 15yd Target will be a PRIZE TARGET.

25 yard Pistol Target, Open Class. Use any optics you want.
Use the 100 yd Iron Sight Target: See Attachment
Take 10 shots at the target. Score your target as indicated on the target. Target may be shot off hand or from a bench rest. Off hand shooters will compete separately from bench rest shooters.

Additional targets are in the second post.

For each target indicate your total score and if not already indicated on the target note the distance shot and what type of sights. Ex: Score =xxx, Iron Sights, Scope, Red Dot. No fair shooting iron sight targets with a scope for score. You may also indicate what rifle and ammo was used.

Rules:

This is an online match. Print off the targets, shoot where and when you want. Come back and post your targets for those in your face bragging rights!! I do encourage meeting up with other match shooters. Any rimfire firearm is eligible. Shooting from a benchrest, prone, sitting, standing, hood of your car, leaning against a tree is acceptable. Using a rest in which the Rifle/Pistol can be locked down is verboten. There is no limit to the number of targets that can be shot, post the best or post them all.

Bonus Points

Here is how it will work. This is only on targets that have multiple shots on one target. We shoot the targets as normal and add up the scores like normal. The twist is we shoot for groups as well. For example, if we are shooting 5 shots on each target. If none of the 5 bullet holes are touching you get no bonus points. If two are touching you get 2 bonus points. If three are touching you get 3 bonus points on up to a maximum of 5 bonus points for each target. You only get bonus points for one group of touching holes.

Finally for any questions just drop me a PM and I'll get right back to you. Feel free to also PM me with feedback/complaints/suggestions/ or errors I make, etc... These matches are based on “Gentlemen's/Ladie's Honor” so go shoot and have fun.
