The August match thread is going up a bit early because I'm going to be wrapped around the axle next week moving dwellings. It's the honor system, as usual, that we won't have any "Sooners."
Be safe, shoot straight, stay cool and have fun.
Guidelines, same as July:
CZ or BRNO scoped sporters, in a factory configuration - less than or equal to 9.0 lbs when weighed with the magazine removed. The CZ 452, 453, 455, and 457 Varmint models should qualify unless your glass and rings are more than 2 pounds. Pro Varmint, At One, and Varmint MTR models may be tough to get in under the weight limit.
Any safe trigger. Maximum magnification of 9x on the scope, for 25 yard targets. (Those with variable scopes set them to 9x or lower).
No aftermarket barrels or stocks - only CZ's original stocks and barrels. It is also prohibited to swap the stocks or barrels of different CZ models such as taking the stock from a Varmint and putting it on a Trainer. If one has damaged his/her original CZ stock or barrel, they may order the same exact factory replacement part for their specific model. There are other BR games on RFC for dramatically altered rifles. We are trying to encourage competition with unmodified or minimally modified scoped CZ sporters. As to custom stock bedding performed on a factory stock, no compound-bedding allowed, pillared or non, and plain pillar bedding is prohibited as well.
Target is the USBR Target (The Green Monster)
22 long rifle
Fired from a benchrest using separate front and rear support and a bi-pod is fine if the shooter prefers. Gun vices and one piece rests are not allowed.
New for this year:
Option 1: Distance to target is 25 yards, all guidelines above apply.
Option 2: Distance to target is 50 yards, all guidelines above apply except scope magnification is unlimited.
Time limit - 1 hour for unlimited sighters and the 25 rounds for score
You can shoot on an indoor range if it is your only option, but please report that fact in your post.
You can post multiple targets if each is fired with a different CZ. For example, a shooter could post one with his/her CZ Varmint and another with his/her CZ American and a third with a scoped Ultra Lux. You may shoot up to FOUR targets with EACH rifle AT EACH DISTANCE and post the highest score fired with each one. Post up any target you shoot if you choose so we can all praise you for your perseverance and improvements. Just don't forget to go back and mark only your best as "Official Entry" before the end of the month.
Post a pic of your target (required) and the equipment you used (recommended) in this thread by July 31, 2024.
Honor system, and we couldn't ask for a more honorable bunch.
Wind flags are fine.

How to score:

A scoring board is helpful, as is a scoring plug (or gauge). An internet search on scoring gauge should reveal multiple sources.

TARGETS?
Good question!

For anyone from Canada who would like to join in, I suggest you try an internet search (USBR Target Canada seems to work). The sources of GMs up north seem to be variable.
You can also find practice targets on this forum. Look under "Little Monster" at:
