Hopefully getting out there early this week to shoot 75 yards, while the sun is warming up this old body. Same gun and ammo, but may try shooting steel targets at 200 and 300 yds. Also, testing out a new build with CZ MTR action.
Just curious, when I first joined this site we had a shooter who shot 3 different Rifles. Old man hub, was his thread name. Anybody know anything about him.
Great shooting! Jealous of that scope. Looks like we have 3 perfect scores so far. None have posted from 75 yards though.The NCWRC range in Caswell was very active today, but managed to get some shots down range, between the M1 smoking my view to my left and AR blasting away to my right. I focused on getting the CZ 457 MTR that is in a new MDT chassis with a different scope, on paper and dialed in. The result was good. Shot 2 golf targets with a mag change, then accidently shot a 19th hole. Lots of fun. I will try to get back on a quiet day to shoot 75 yards.

I thought it ended this month. I have been recovering from Covid and didn't think I would have time to try again. I know admin decided to have the 75 yard tie breaker and I thought it was going to be one target and done. Any clarification on this?Very good shooting in tough conditions. I think this challenge runs through the end of January. If so, there is still time to shoot 75 yards again. That is what I plan to do when I get back from FL.
I also found out that the illumination helps in the rain and fog at 75 yards.I thought it ended this month. I have been recovering from Covid and didn't think I would have time to try again.

The thread title is December/January rimfire 50 yard challenge. January didn't even happen yet.I thought it ended this month. I have been recovering from Covid and didn't think I would have time to try again. I know admin decided to have the 75 yard tie breaker and I thought it was going to be one target and done. Any clarification on this?
I second whidden gunworks. Fast shipping!This was the first time I ordered from them. Shipped quickly. Flat rate shipping was expensive, so you have to order enough to make it worth while. Carolina Guns and Gear range is going to stock some Wolf Match pretty soon.
Blue Collar Reloading in Salisbury usually has some.This target is surprising a lot of shooters, including me. This wind thing is a curve that I haven't learned yet as I have only been shooting outside competitively for about 2 years.
I haven't heard of the SK Flat point ammo. It must be pretty good if you have that much faith in it. Where are you getting it?
Great shooting! I believe this nudges you into the lead. The cold weather and rain has definitely made it hard to get out.I was able to get out this afternoon to the Caswell Shooting Range and got the CZ457 MTR on target at 75 yds. Only got 6 of 9 in the hole. Two were just a little off. They have their own 50 yd challenge going. 5 shots on the bench with one point supported, then 5 shots unsupported. I shot 75 out of 100. That was the high score for the day. I can do better. Need to remove some weight off the front next time.

Checked with Blue Collar Reloading on their website. They don't show it. I am interested in trying it but I am now wanting something for 75 to 100 yard range.Blue Collar Reloading in Salisbury usually has some.
With blue collar, you might want to use the email feature on their web site, and ask them what SK and Wolf ammo that they have in stock. They usually give an answer the next day. The sight rarely shows ammo or primer availability. If they have any, they will tell you.Checked with Blue Collar Reloading on their website. They don't show it.

I believe we had a 3 shot maximum for each hole whether you hit the hole or not. This was to save ammo and keep me from from embarrassing myself too much. You are correct on the 75 yard target though. 1 shot per hole.The 50 yard challenge is shoot until you hit the hole. For those with perfect scores of 9, they move the target to 75 yards as a tie breaker. One shot at each hole. The score is how many hits out of 9 shots. As far as ammo for 100 yards, try SK Long Range. Slightly higher velocity in higher quality ammo. Whidden Gunworks has it and ships quickly. Target Sports has Wolf Match and CGG Range in Asheboro is getting some Wolf Match in soon. Wolf Match is made by Eley. E stamped on the brass.
