Your taxes are due! Fill out your Form 1040.
THR Virtual Match March 04 Targets: Courtesy of the federal government
As you all know it is tax time again. Unless you have filed an extension or you are from the extreme libertarian fringes of THR, your taxes are due April 15th. Well here at The High Road, we are giving you an extra 15 days to file your taxes and they are not due until April 30th! The only problem is you have run out of ink in your pen and you must fill out your Form 1040 with lead!
Here is the course of fire. In the interest of simplicity (more than last month at least), I am going to tell you who you are. With this information, you will now fill out your Form 1040 tax return using the personal information I am about to give you. The match will be judged by the least number of shots necessary to complete your tax form. Along with the extension that THR has granted you, you are also only required to fill out 15 parts of the Form 1040. So be prepared to shoot a minimum of 15 shots this month.
1040 Front Side
Shot 1: First Name. Shoot anywhere in or touching the first name box.
Shot 2: Last Name. Shoot anywhere in or touching the last name box.
Shot 3: Social Security Number. To some the Mark of the Beast; To others, just another number. Get your shot in or touching the lines of the box.
Shot 4: Line 1 - Marital Status. The nice thing about putting your SS# on the form is they now know your address because they track your movements through the smart chip in your credit card anyway. So you are single, shoot the single box, the 1 next to the box, or the word single.
Shot 5: Line 6a - Exemptions. Since the government tracks your movements and you foolishly think your tinfoil hat blocks their tracking devices in your dental fillings, you have a hard time finding a date. You have no wife and you have no kids. Hit the 6a, the box, or the Yourself.
Shot 6: Line 6d - Add numbers on lines above. That black little box is asking for you to shoot it. Don’t let it down. Hit in or on the little black box.
Shot 7: Line 22 - Total Income. Since you gave them your social security number, they know how much money you made and all of those other forms of income; they only want to know how honest you are going to be. This shot must be in or touching the white box to the right of the “22â€.
Shot 8: Line 34 – Adjusted Gross Income. We already went over this, Big Brother knows everything. Just let them know what you are going to say your AGI is. This shot must be in or touching the white box to the right of the “34â€.
Form 1040 Back Side
Shot 9: Line 37 – Itemized Deductions. No witty remarks this time. Just shoot in or on that big huge box to the right of the number “37â€.
Shot 10: Line 60 – Total Tax. How many times do we have to go over this? They know everything you make and do. This is just a test to see how honest you are. This shot must be in or touching the white box to the right of the “60â€.
Shot 11: Line 68 – Total Payments. I know I am getting easy on your guys. That is as big as a box as it is going to get. Tell us what your total payments were. This shot must be in or touching the white box to the right of the “68â€.
Shot 12 & 13: Line 72 – AMOUNT YOU OWE. You didn’t think you were getting a return this year did you? Of course not. You owe and owe so much YOU MUST SHOOT LINE 72 TWICE. These two shots must be in or touching the white box to the right of the “72â€.
Shot 14: Your Signature. Sign in lead. This shot must be in or touching the signature box.
Shot 15: Date. Date the form in the caliber of your choosing. This shot must be in or touching the date box.
You are finished!!! Here is how we are going to score this thing since this can be a hard target. Top score is who ever shot all 15 sections in the least number of shots. So a perfect score would be “15 in 15â€. Next highest score would be shooting all 15 sections in something over 15 shots. So if I missed a few times, but got all 15 sections, I might have a score of “15 in 20†or “15 in 35â€.
There is a chance some of you might get frustrated and decide not to finish it or you might decide to risk that no one is going to shoot all 15 sections. So if you shot 14 sections in 14 shots, you would finish below everyone who shot 15 sections, regardless of the number of shots it took them. So here is a potential score list.
1st: Photo Guy “15 in 17â€
2nd: Ankey “15 in 20â€
3rd: El Rojo “12 in 12â€
4th: Ready on the Right “5 in 20â€
Official Target
Do no use the .jpg images I created above. The official target this month is a Form 1040 tax form. You can download it in .pdf format or use the Form 1040 in your 2003 1040 Forms and Instructions booklet or get the forms from your local library. You will need two of the Form 1040 forms so you can shoot the front side and the back side separate.
Classes
Handgun: Iron Sights
All shots will be taken from 10 feet. Handguns can be any caliber, but the gun must have iron sights. No optics. Shots must be taken standing without a rest. One or two handed.
Handgun: Scoped
All shots will be taken from 10 feet. Handguns can be any caliber and must have some sort of optical sight. Non-magnified red dots and holographs are classified in this category. Shots must be taken standing without a rest. One or two handed.
Rifle: Iron Sights/Non-Magnified Optics
All shots will be taken from 30 feet. The rifle can be of any caliber, but must have iron sights or some kind of non-magnified optical site. Any position or rest: standing, kneeling, prone, bench, bipod, and/or sandbags.
Rifle: Scoped Intermediate
All shots will be taken from 50 yards. The rifle can be of any caliber and must have some kind of magnified optic. Any position or rest: standing, kneeling, prone, bench, bipod, and/or sandbags.
Rifle: Scoped Advanced
All shots will be taken from 100 yards. The rifle can be of any caliber and must have some kind of magnified optic. Any position or rest: standing, kneeling, prone, bench, bipod, and/or sandbags.
Number of Entries
Each shooter is allowed to make three entries from any class, but each entry must be a different firearm. So if you want to shoot three different guns all in the same class, go for it. The only exception is if you want to shoot the same firearm once in the iron sights class and once in the scoped class as long as you shoot with irons in the iron sight class and with an optic/scope in the optic/scope class.
Remember the rules for posting!
All scores will be posted in this thread. All questions and comments should be posted over in the comments and questions thread in order to reduce the number of posts to wade through come counting time and for new participants.
