Title: Chunk-shoot results
Post by: Daryl on September 16, 2009, 08:40:46 PM
My sincere thanks to all who registered and to those who shot the match. We had 6 entries alltogether, with 4 returns - big drop from last year's effort, oh well.

 
Here's the results:
1st place with a string measure of 6.235" - Mark Herman
2nd place with a string measure of 7.630" - Roger Fisher
3rd place with a string measure of 8.92" - Brian Jordan

Note that all averaged less than 1" from centre, with mark just shy of 1/2".

Prizing as follows - $15.00 for 1st, $10.00 for second and $5.00 for third.  I'll get the those envelopes out in the mail this week.

Congrats to those in the arena!

Any chance of posting a few photos of targets so I can see what to work towards for next year?

I noticed that you and I are not numbered among the participants.  That's pitiful.

Ayah, but I just got my rifle two weeks ago!

...now if I could use my 700VS I could be in the running from 300 yards, but I guess that would be cheating! 8)

Open iron sights only - you would be at a distinct disadvantage off a chunk at 50 yards - 'course, you'd have to install sights first.
