Re: AUSVARMINT FIELD SHOOTING COMPETION -Just for fun!
The Rules -
The idea is to make it a varminting type postal competition
Rules - I suppose there has to be some guidelines!
All targets must be shot concurrantly (at the one time - no picking best targets and mix & matching)
Ranges - 100m rabbit, 200m cat, 300m fox
One rifle to be used at all distances - any caliber OK
Five shots at each target.
Positions - Offhand
Sitting
Standing with rest (can be tree,post etc)
Resting (can be bench, bonnet, quad handlebars, 4WD window rest)
Prone using - bipods, backpack, jumper or anything else normally carried in the field.

Stewie I cant shoot offhand so I rarely do. I'm not the most competetive shooter but dont fancy entering when I KNOW I have no chance.
There, does that sound like a good whinge?
FFS I better get you to send me a target, just made myself sick.
C'mon you other girls

I may as well choose the 12g cause the targets will look the same if i use a rifle anyway

My offhand shots with the heavy barrel 22/250 will be a bit like that too I reckon.bimbo wrote:I may as well choose the 12g cause the targets will look the same if i use a rifle anyway

Stewie,
This sounds like it will be a heap of fun.
Sounds like a job for the 6mm 284 and the new Night force.
