Sharpen up your pencil Solus. You have some competition this year.  ;D
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

No kidding, I just did a practice run since I've not pressed a trigger in 16 months.

It showed!   :P :P :P

Next time I'll shoot my targets or just "pencil" them in!

I'll use ink for the check though.. ;)

I won all categories in my class last year.

Of course, I was the only one entered for it and it wasn't an official class, but I'm still proud of it  ;D ;D ;D

You keep that Pre-Ban Ticonderoga holstered Mister!!!...Oh wait, you had that tactical evil "machine pencil" didn't you.....

That's just not fair.... ::)

Can we get a lawn dart category?  ;D

Jarts at 50 paces.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

HEAR YEA!  HEAR YE!  Let the gauntlet be laid down.   



I'm not saying whether this was 7.5, 10, or 25yds;  sandbag or off hand.


I don't want anyone to be discouraged, so I'll throw this one away and go with whatever today's range session brings.  ;)




And to further help encourage you let me post my target from last year's 100yd off hand.



(no mistake, that's what I submitted last year......and yes I really tried.)


Will work for ammo
USAF MAC 437th MAW 1968-1972

Meanwhile back at the motel  (while the server was down):

I managed to complete my targets.    (Checks in the mail.)

Here's a sample:





Remember it's more about the charitable contribution than it is winning any humongous prize.....which there ain't anyway.

I'm still waiting on the $25,000 shopping spree at Barrett, with breakfast at the hidden bunker with MB.., and a $5000 Midway Gift Card, with an all expense paid trip to Thunder Ranch...

(crickets),.....


BUT,.....the bragging rights for 2012 is a big thing....and your right...The contribution will go to those that truly need it.

After all it's Christmas....

Nice shootin' there alf!!! Especially 4B!!! 

The bar is set!!!

Hmm, guess I need some more practice. I was pretty happy in 4A until the 3rd shot.



A little happier in 2B. Used Federal XM193 ammo for this BTW.
