Well, the shoot was a success, but that's a relative term. I.e., the weather was perfect: mid-60's, low humidity, no wind (a rarity on our range). All 6 of us had a good time and there were no safety violations of any kind; no blow ups (guns, tempers) either. Moreover, one of our participants saw this notice here and decided to join us. (Thanks for attending, Jim!). However, we weren't overjoyed by the lack of participation by our club members: 5 of the participants were club members, but the other 108 were nowhere to be seen, and many of them own BP rifles, mostly inlines, but they were allowed: We even lend people a rifle if they wish to shoot. Anyway, it was an enjoyable day and, perhaps I shouldn't mention this, but I took 2nd place, which was a complete surprise as I thought I shot poorly. A 6th shot on two targets (5 shots each allowed) knocked me out of 1st place. Maybe I should consider one of those Merit Optical Disks, as I couldn't see those 6th shots even when viewed through a 40X spotting scope?
