I got sidetracked and didn't post an October Handgun Match. Instead, since the holidays are coming up, I thought I'd post a Holiday Match, which will run to January 2nd, 2010.
You may notice a few things different than previous matches; I'm hoping these changes will make the match simpler and more fun:
1. Rather than shoot for a score, shooters shoot for group size.
2. Shooters can use any target they like, but taking a cue from the Compact Handgun Match, you must write on the target:
3. 5 shots, 15 yards, unsupported.
4. Irons or optics.
5. Centerfires and rimfires scored separately. Depending on the level of participation, revolvers and semi-autos may be separated as well.
6. Shooters may submit multiple times within the same category. If someone beats your group, then, you're welcomed to get back to the range to beat their group. 'Course, they're allowed to then beat your group, too. You can, of course, enter in as many categories as you like.
I'm having some back surgery next week, so it's likely I myself won't get to the range again until early to mid November. In the meantime, I'll be checking in and wishing y'all good shootin'.
