Today's air rifle silhouette match...

Match #1, Club match, NRA Air Rifle resettables, yards
Date: 11-3-19

JSB Diablo Exact RS (7.33) pellets
Sightron BigSky @ 24X

Chickens - 9
Pigs - 7
Turkeys - 6

Wind killed me on the Rams.

Weaver V-24 @ 24X
JSB Exact Heavy Diablo (10.34) pellets

Chickens - 4

Couldn't get it together on Chickens but made up some lost ground on the Pigs.

Weaver T-24
JSB Exact Heavy Diablo (10.34) pellets

Chickens - 7

Cleaning the Pigs twice in a row was nice. Beat my friend (who is a Master in all rifles) in the Open rifle but he got me by ten points in the aggregate.

I'll miss our club's smallbore match next weekend so no scores for me for a couple of weeks.

Hunter Class- AA
Cz 452 Silhouette
Weaver V-24
CCI SV
NRA 1/5 Spinners

Chicks.....5

Pigs........7

Turkeys........2

Rams.........5

I could not get it together on turks.

The monthly match on the south side of town.


NRA steel, meters
Anschutz 1710
Leupold Vari-X III / Premier boosted scope @ ~30X
SK Rifle Match
Date: 11-23-19


Match #1, Standard Rifle
Class: AAA

Chickens - 5
Pigs - 5
Turkeys - 8
Rams - 6
TOTAL - 24

Started on Pigs, ended on Chickens. It's pretty sad when your best animal is Turkeys! I put three shots between the legs on the Pigs this match. :mad:


Match #2, Hunter Rifle
Class: AAA

Chickens - 6
Pigs - 9
Turkeys - 7
Rams - 7
TOTAL - 29

Much happier with the Pigs but just couldn't get it together on Chickens.

This particular range faces south so we had the sun in our eyes/scopes while the animals were shaded by the backstops. Quite annoying, but that's part of the game.

Squeezed in a bonus practice yesterday. Shot the air rifles in preparation for our monthly match tomorrow (Sunday).


Match #1, NRA Air Rifle swingers, yards
Date: 11-29-19


Round #1, Target Rifle:
Class: AAA
Anschutz 2002 SuperAir
JSB Diablo Exact RS (7.33) pellets
Sightron BigSky @ 24X

Chickens - 7
Pigs - 10
Turkeys - 6
Rams - 9
TOTAL - 32 (a master score!)



Round #2, Sporter Rifle:
Class: Master
Air Arms TX200 Mk-III
Weaver V-24 @ 24X
JSB Exact Heavy Diablo (10.34) pellets

Chickens - 6
Pigs - 8
Turkeys - 7
Rams - 7
TOTAL - 28

Gave up one Pig and one Turkey due to edge shots that may or may not have dropped a resettable target, so I counted them as a miss.



Round #3, Open Rifle:
Class: AAA
Air Arms HFT 500
Weaver T-24
JSB Exact Heavy Diablo (10.34) pellets

Chickens - 10
Pigs - 8
Turkeys - 3
Rams - 9
TOTAL - 30

The rising 10-15 MPH winds really got me on Turkeys. It didn't help that I started to get sloppy with my follow-through on the Pigs and I really paid for it on the Turkeys.
Managed to pull it together for a final run on Rams though.

I'll have match scores tomorrow afternoon.

EDIT: post moved to the December thread.

I have tried numerous times to post the December matches, but I keep getting blocked. :confused:

I have contacted the "powers that be" about my issue and am currently awaiting a reply.

Stay tuned.

Is it too late for November? ha. First time I've done this in a while. Pretty satisfied with the score.

Match 1 yards, paper 1/5th

CZ 452 american
Athlon Talos 6-24
Wolf match target (old SK)

Chicken 5
Pig 8

Welcome MManning!

We post up for fun so no worries about being a little late.

We've had a few technical glitches but I think I've got the December thread worked out so post any December scores there.

Thanks for the welcome. I must have posted just a few minutes before the December thread was started.

Hopefully I can contribute some posts to this and the other two offhand match threads. It's great motivation to "practice with purpose".
