Internet Shield Match

[Harley Fan]

Here's my target. The flyer was because... ah, yea.. the guy next to me with his Ruger Redhawk. Yea, that's it.

Chief, I'm stealing this. And using this.

Any of you guys do any work to your Shields? Apex,new sights?
I checked my trigger pull weight this morning and it was 7.5 lbs.

Mine is bone stock unless you count the Pearce mag baseplates and the Lasermax (which I hardly ever use) My trigger is 5 lb 7 oz. (After 2000 rd)

Mine is bone stock as well but I need to shoot it more frequently. I bought it from a police officer that only put a couple of hundred rounds through it. I've only put about 100 through it. It's as stiff as a board

Last and official entry. A little better since the lighting was better(other people at the range beside me = more lights), and I used different ammo.
I also shot the same target at the same distance with my Model 65 I just got back from my local gun smith.


Not as good, but I shot this using strong hand only. The grips look nice but are terrible for shooting IMO.

Been to the range and I'm upping the ante with a 94. 6-10's but still can't avoid a couple of 8's. The 2nd target is just showing off my group. Too bad most of it's in the 9 ring. Plus with 7 shots in one hole I can't really score it accurately. I think it's at most a 93, so I'm going with the other one.

Good shooting. Now I have to go back to the range....

Dang lasers!!!

You conned us with that profile name

OK folks. Last weekend for this competition. All posts on, or before March 1 will count. Winner will be declared on March 2. Looks like 94 is the score to beat. A lofty goal, but someone can beat that! Personally, I'm gonna try a different load. Maybe a different powder will tighten up my groups. Good shooting!

 

[Seanhagerty]

I made it back to the range today and shot well enough to post here.

Here is my target still on the backer.

And here it is off the backer with pistol and info.

I am calling this 97. Looking at this, the hole at 4 oclock might have touched the 10 ring, but with it shot up like that, I cant tell, so I'll call it a -1. Then there are two holes at 12 oclock in the 9 ring.

I have got to find a better way to hang these targets, they are getting too shot up. But they are grouping nicely!!

 

[ChiefStealth]

OK. Here's my last entry for this month. Some improvement from the last one. Tried some loads with Bullseye instead of Titegroup. The BE sure does shoot "softer" than the TG. I was really trying to get to 90. It was a sunny day, but the wind was blowing and my eyes were tearing up.

 

[RaginRog]

I'm surprised there weren't more participants.

 

[ChiefStealth]

Not many participants? Obviously, folks have not yet read the list of fabulous prizes being awarded in our competition.
And, speaking of prizes... First place, for the month of February goes to... drum roll... Seanhagerty with a score of 97. Wow! Good shooting! There were a few other scores in the 90s, which is still darn good shootin'.
The rules committee is now accepting recommendations for competition for March. Y'all want a different target? Different distance?

 

[Seanhagerty]

Thank you sir. I accept this award with all the honor and glory associated with such a momentous event.

Unsupported standing two handed, 10ea X 1 inch dots at 3 yds?

 

[RSBH44]

Now there's an idea. Let the winner call the next challenge target. I participated in an on line competition for awhile on another site that did just that. It turned out pretty interesting and fun.

 

[RSBH44]

Congrats to Seanhagerty by the way. That was some good shooting.

 

[Seanhagerty]

Using my thoughts on the target may be a tough way to decide who wins.

I will bow to any other thoughts on target for this month.
