I told my Dad about this and he wanted to enter as well.

Well as you can see the "kid" needs to improve a good bit.

Here's my target at 10 yards. Ammo was 135gr.+p GD


and at 25 yards.


Here's my Dad's at 10 yards. Yeah, you don't want to mess with him.

Using my pre 36 with 158 RN. When I bought it I really hated the look of these grips but after shooting with them I love em.

10yds roughly 2.5"

25yds roughly 6.75" but I actually shot 14 rounds on this target

Please state the group sizes. I can't measure them from here.

Great to see all participating.

Decision and prize awarded tomorrow night.

That is the first target I ever saw that has a 12.

It IS on a weekly basis.

New match every week. You can shoot the same gun, a different one, or more than one each week. 10 yards or 25 yards.

shorty 45 mk2's dad shot a nice target no measurements

25 yards 5-Shot did an amazing 3.22"

The rest of us are over 6"

jbull380 and 5-Shot PM me your address and I will send 25 printed downsized targets in the mail.

The winners can not enter the same match next week. YOU CAN enter at the other distance or use a different snubby.

The best part is everybody that shot honed their snubby skills a little.

Holes in the paper? 3" or less barrel? Shoot away

2" Barrel, 10 OR 25 yards
Over 2" barrel, 25 yards only.

This week i am using semi auto. This limits me to 25 yards. I have no 2" semi.

Lets see some BIG holes in the paper.

 

[4barrel]

This is my weekend try. Not great but I am 69 & shot with one hand. Second try on one target & third try the next day. These are around 950fps. 50 shots & these are the best two targets. We had a ball. I will clean my snub later. 19-5 I bought new in the early 80s. About 5-7/8 on one & 5-3/4 on the other. We will try to do the short shot next week. A mosquito lit on my nose & I blew the group.

 

[David R]

Sweet 4barrel. Nice targets and nice gun. Please post the measurements of your group size.

[Shorty 45 MK2]

David R, sorry about the lack of measurements. Just thought the ruler was for reference.

Don't sweat it. I actually did that to avoid file photos. AND I checked one gun to make sure it had a 3" barrel using the tape measure in the pic.

Lets keep it light, have fun and sharpen our skills.

I goofed today. I went to the range thinking I had HBWC but had the same ammo as last time. Guess I have to try again!

Hey very cool! Thanks

 

[ISCS Yoda]

NICE IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just spotted this - I shot a couple of guns over the weekend but one was a 4" Ruger Service Six and the other a 6906 that has a 3.5" barrel. I'll dig out some other shorties and play SOON!!!

***GRJ***

 

[5-Shot]

Thanks David R. I'll be baaaaaak.

This weeks match

This week I changed the rules. Resting at 25 yards is OK and the only prize will be for that match. Its still OFFHAND at 10 yards.

Enter others as much and often as you like.

I will start a new thread in a couple weeks if this catches on with different matches every week.

Starting with my 3" chiefs, I thought I had HBWC with me but had the same SWC as last week, so I shot them anyhow. Both guns off a rest at 25 yards. I shot 2" airweight (because I always have it with me) and the 3" 36 no dash with target stocks.

 

[Knigge]

Just for fun, i shot 10 rounds from 10 meters and then 10 rounds from 25 meters, standing, two hands, OFFHAND , Mod 60 LS 2".

10 rounds, 10 meter, 38 special wad cutters, 8 niners and 2 ten`s...3,5" groupe


10 rounds, 25 meters ......6" groupe


Very happy with that, i got this gun on monday and have only fired 200 rounds with it

 

[RussellD]

Count me in. Going to use my old 10-5 snubby and wadcutters.
