Ed you can score your own targets.

If more than 50% percent of your shot is on the inside half of the line you can score a 9 point score.

Center black dot is worth 10 points, in order to score 10 points you must have your shot more than 50% inside the black. For the bonus you MUST be ALL inside the back.

That's a weird way to score.
In ALL organized target shooting competitions, ANY part of the hole touching a line gets you the higher score.

Ok, Thanx for the heads up! I did not know that!

I've never shot any organized matches, and the way I explained is just the way I thought things were. I just figured if most my shot is in the 9 ring and less was in the 10 ring, then it should score 9.

So, as not to be "out of the norm", I stand corrected and we'll use this method of counting the scoring.

Should this be shot offhand, prone, or does pretty much everything go?

Anything goes for this match! I plan on using a rest.

Here is a good PDF on scoring targets:

The last large paragraph on page 3 has the actual NRA wording and discussion about this.

Thanx for the info! I guess I've actually shot better than I thought!

August rimfire match

Here is my target from today. 50 yards with a rest. Shot at Chabot in Castro Valley on the 50 yard rifle range public line.

With the new score in effect I calculate this to be 370. Only 10 bonus points scored here as all the hits must be within the black as stated in the match start post.

My 10/22 has an unknown stock (I would be interested to know what it is), Harris non swivel bipod,Volquartsen fluted SS barrel with brake, my own trigger job (around 1 1/2 lbs), chamfered bolt, also ground the face down to near minimum head space, auto bolt release mod, extended mag release, my own barrel retainer block with a set screw, Barska 10-40x50 AO scope with my own scope base with 15 moa machined in for long range sighting and a delrin bolt buffer. The receiver is fully bedded and I made a aluminum bushing which is bedded into the bottom of the stock and a SS take down bolt that acts like a pillar bedding recoil lug (very close tolerance) to keep it all together. Made all the parts myself in my home shop.

Ammo today was Wolf Match Target. I know there is something better as there seemed to be some hits that were not as consistent as the majority.

Next addition will be a Volquartsen extractor.

August rimfire match

dwh100:

Great shooting. Looks like 400 is a possibility from someone here on CG.

Seems like a positive score match is working, at least for me. Thanks.

I know the "Benchrest" guys can blow us all away, but for plinkers this is good clean fun.

More targets please as we need to encourage dwh100 to keep this going.

Thanks again and stay safe.

355 points

Close, but no bonus points for our plucky hero:



Shot 50 yards prone with a bipod (no rear support) in fairly gusty wind conditions with a Kimber M82 bolt action, a 4x-16x/56mm airgun scope (hey, it's what I had), and SK Standard Plus ammo.

Now I want to go back when it's calm (it's rarely calm at the Dunsmuir range) and get those bonus points I so richly deserve.

Maybe I'll squeeze in a morning before the month's over.
