You may have to fiddle with your printer settings a tad to get a good target copy. Don't worry if any unnecessary wabbit parts are cut off. Concentrate on getting the majority of the scoring areas on paper.

Yes, I just retested it and the links seem to have broken.

So I've added a new topic titled Match 13 Target Links. I've also added two target links up above.

Try with one of those. Hope they work for you.

I assume this should be shot standing or sitting, unsupported. Is that correct?

Thanks!
If you're benching one of your laser-beams, then you can use the 1/3 size at full distance, bucko! :)

Yes, you can use red dots or scopes.

And, yes, the positions are standing or sitting (unsupported). Thanks for bringing that up. I somehow managed to leave it out of the final match details.

I'll add it to the announcement post above.

BTW: Are the target links working for everyone now?

I'm doing this right by Joel's wife... Gonna borrow an old bolt-gun with iron sights and a looooong barrel to point at the rabbit. Do it sitting down with my elbows on my knees. Gonna break out the good stuff: CCI's... Wabbits won't stand a chance!

Oh, BTW credit must be given to Enoughgun.com, an Aussie Gun Forum that provided the basic target we are using for this challenge. Interesting site with a good knowledge base, worth checking out for what else is happening in the world with our sport.

Thank you: http://enoughgun.com/forum/

Thanks for an interesting challenge!!!
Absolutely. As always, you can enter every category and division.

And thanks again to Bisbee for his great help finding the targets and doing the work to make them available for download here.

I shot the match this morning with one of my Kidd 10/22s - the one the Klown painted in memory of my departed pet turkey, Boyd. I did okay. Not spectacular.

I brought one of the small targets in case I could not get on the rifle range and would have to shoot it in the pistol bay. Since no one else was there, I shot the match offhand with the full size target at 50 yards. Just for fun, I mounted a bipod and shot the small target at 50 yards off a rickety bench. I did not have my rear bag so the results do not represent the best that the rifle can do. At fifty yards, it was darned hard to see the 10 ring.

Anyway, THIS IS NOT AN ENTRY; it is just for fun.

OK, so it may not be up to your usual, but you killed the hell out of those wabbits nonetheless. ;)

Nice shooting. :)

Dang, Bucolic, was that a 10/22 with open sights or through glass? You shot those itty-bitty rabbits at 50 yards supported? Dang impressive!

Yes. That's a good idea. Be as accurate as possible with the reduction and please indicate the distance and reduction on the score you submit.

I only ask for that info because I want to compare the full-size target and reduced-size target scoring patterns.
