Shot today while dripping sweat. Marlin 925R, cheap Barska 3-9x with basic Harris bipod and Blazer 525 bulk pack 38gr LRN. 98, if I counted right. Not terrible, just not great.
Adjusted scope after first (top/left) bull. I was very happy with the next target (top right) but let down after that.

Im getting out the A22 tomorrow for a report tomorrow night!
Okay, well, conditions were less than ideal, darkness, wind and no time to set up my spotting scope therefore I had no idea where my bullets were hitting. Those are my excuses. Crossing wind at 10/15 gusting 20 from right to left. Shot from a front bag. CCI SV 40 grain ammo. Rifle is the little Savage BTV. Scope set at 9X. I only had time for three targets. I was trying to get four.
One target (#3) has four holes, that one my wife came up behind me and touched me as I pulled the trigger
.
If a hole split a ring I counted it to the lower ring, is that correct?
How many tries do we get? How many targets per entry? This rifle has gone hole on hole if I can get my stuff together.
Maybe I should enter my Marauder, five shots at 40 yards:

We were saying one entry for rifle, But honestly this is just for fun. So if you're not happy with your performance, I don't see any reason to not shoot it again.....Okay, well, conditions were less than ideal, darkness, wind and no time to set up my spotting scope therefore I had no idea where my bullets were hitting.

If you break the line you get the higher score.
Speaking of that Marauder..... While not an "official" entry
Here's the targets I shot today with my QB78 repeater.
I scored to the lower, oh well. I should have waited for a better day but was impatient.
I do not want to cheat, maybe I will enter my Savage Mk II TR or my modded 1022 as a second entry.

I’m going to try a PCP with irons if I get a chance.
This looks like fun. I'll try to get to the range this weekend and not melt in the Hot Texas Sun. I must have missed where I can get the targets to print off and what range are they being shot at?? Oh by the way....good shooting guys!!
Thank you 3Crows. What about the shooting distance??

50 yards scoped. 25 yards with irons.
Just saying. The target is challenging. Without a spotting scope I cannot see my holes at 50 yards. Those splatter type targets I can see, this printed target is a challenge. Of course, it is supposed to be a challenge so I am not complaining , this is part of the contest. But unless a spotting scope is against the rules I plan to use one next time so I can see what I am doing . You can have a great group but if it is printing in a low ring, no prize for you!!!!! We are not going for groups, we want points, lol.

Your welcome. 
THAT was the challenging part last time. You need a good group where you're aiming.

I have a QB78 single shot. It's pretty accurate but I don't know about 50 yards. The seals leak in it so I can't shoot it now. I am hoping for the pain in my hands to go down soon so I can shoot this target again .Probably with a CZ 452.
I just rebuilt mine which is actually what prompted me to shoot it lol.....had to scrounge up a pos scope and pull the objective lock ring so i could adjust it enough to see....
Not sure what i did with the scope off that gun when it was down.

I did my Remington 572 today. I planed on doing my Marlin XT 22 and Rossi gallery gun too. I couldn't get comfortable bench shooting the little rossi. I was moving alot. The XT 22 i put my new Burris scope on it. But it was hitting way low. I ran out of elevation adjustment. Im going to try other rings before i call Burris. So any way here is the target with the 572. I forgot to get a pic of how it was rested. I had it on a Caldwell tack driver bag. Ammo win 555.
Entry number 2, my Ruger 1022:
I used my spotting scope to see where the first bullet landed and corrected from there. A little better, I guess. If the dang wind would let up a little. I need a better scope, the BSA is only 9X and it has a fairly course cross hair at 9X covering the bull making it difficult to be precise.
