Jeeze Oh Pete! It's THURSDAY ALREADY?!
Holidays really messed with my timeline.
Hear Ye, Hear Ye!
Come one, come all... Casual Match #4 of 2021/2022 is open for business.!!!
The Casual Match is a fun match. Shoot whatever you want at 10M (more or less depending on what you have available), use any position or rest that you prefer. See below for the details.
Rules are the same as for the 50’ Casual Match, except distance is 10M instead of 50’, using the 50’ target of choice. If you are limited to distance, shoot at whatever distance you have available. Classes are PCP Rifle (includes any rifle except spring or nitro pistons), Jumper (Piston Rifle, spring or gas), and Pistol. One entry may be made in each class.
The match #4 will run 2 weeks, through Sunday, 1/9/22.
The 50’ rules and targets may be found at:

I was going to start shooting this match starting this year but forgot. Oh well, better late than never. I just got an FWB 300S a few months ago so I'm using that for my "Jumper" entry. Ammon is going to try to post some entries also but he has been so busy he may not be able to this time around. Edit: I wrote the score wrong on my target I wrote 100/100 instead of 200/200. Also, I have a question about the pistol class. Does it have to be shot standing unsupported or can it be shot seated from a bench?

Nice shooting. My first go at it. Hopefully will improve

Kidd, because this is a casual match, according to the rules I have shot pistol form the table with a single bag as a rest.
2) Any position you like including bench rest, prone, sitting, kneeling, mono pod, bi pod, etc...;
3) Any rifle or even pistol if you want;

Nice Tom!
Question.. for the .22 shooters.
Any good wadcutters out there in .22?
I have a tin of H&N Sports in 13.73g in 5.50 head size but performance is not that great.

Scott, I've used Meisterkugeln 14 grs. in my Disco. and they shot pretty well at 10 meters. They don't list a head size and I've never measured them. I would imagine it would mainly depend on the barrel although I had a Hatsan AT-44 that shot the Meisterkugeln's well but that rifle would eat anything. It was the least pellet picky rifle I've had.
-
Thanks Mike! Meisterkugeln are my favorite in .177 so that only makes sense.
Never thought of them in .22 :-[

Spent some time in the shop this past few weeks. Getting a bit stronger in my position and pretty happy with where I am so far.
Thanks for running the match, I sure appreciate the chatter.

I shot this round with my CMP Daisy 853 that I just refinished. This is the first match and first time shooting it after getting it back together. I still have a little work left to do, but I couldn't help myself... wanted to shoot it.

Your CMP 853 is a beauty! Thank you for bringing it over today the finish is just unbelievable smooth as a babies butt! I was surprised that was the first time you shot that target since getting a rifle and you did real well! Way to go buddy!
