Welcome to the March Rimfire Match! The match is open to any and EVERY 22 caliber (as well as 17 and 20 caliber) rimfire rifle including the perennial favorite .22LR, as well as the .22Short, .22Long, .22 Mag., .17HM2, .17HMR, and 5mm Rem RF Mag (as well as any oddball rimfires that you might have). This match is meant to be challenging and educational, but most of all FUN. Hopefully it will get you out to the range and shooting your rifle. If you have one handy, make sure an bring a friend too.
There are Two Optics Divisions:
->Iron sights and non-magnified optics and red dots. Shot at 25yds.
->Scopes and other magnified sighting devices. Shot at 50yds.
There are Two Rifle Classes:
->Unlimited/Target Rifles (highly modified rifles, rests, target sights, high magnification optics- over 10x [in the appropriate division] may be used)
->Sporting Rifles (Includes All Non-Target Class Autoloaders, Bolt Actions, Single Shots, Pumps, & Lever Rifles)
Target Class can be shot from any position, Sporting Class is shot from any position without a rest or sandbags. Use of a sling is encouraged for both divisions.
25/50Yd. Target: See attachment. This month's "golf" target was a custom creation by a fellow THR member; I think you'll find it to be interesting and fun, but also challenging as well.
Scale to 100% on standard 8.5x11in. paper. The objective is to get the bullet in the "hole" (breaking the line is fine too). Fire as many shots as necessary (up to five) at each bullseye/hole. Just like golf the lower the score the better! Scored as 1pt per shot, unless you go into a sand trap which adds 2pts.; for a total of 90 possible points (but 9 would be the best possible score
). Feel free to add color around the "holes" to better see the smaller ones (may be particularly useful when shooting with irons). When you are satisfied you've done your best post (or shoot me a PM) a photo of your target scoring with the following information: Forum name or name you want posted in the results, Rifle, make, model, vintage (if known), Sights/Optics (with magnification if applicable), Ammo, Position, Distance, Conditions (in/outdoors, wind, temperature...). Multiple submissions are allowed (in same or different division/class with same or different rifles).
Self-scoring is encouraged and appreciated. All submissions due before April 1st.
