10 Meter Standing And Kneeling Postal Match ** Week 8 **

Here's week #8 of the standing and kneeling postal match. Hone those skills for the forced lanes. Everyone is welcome to participate. 

There will be a category for scopes (any and all) and also a category for peep/iron sights. 

Jackets, gloves and slings are allowed. You can shoot the card in as many increments as you want. One shot per bullseye.

I suggest wad cutter pellets for cleaner (and bigger) holes and easier scoring. If you’re using dome pellets, be sure to push the pellet head into the hole for a more accurate (and better!) score. We’ll score up and not down. So for example, if any part of the pellet hole touches the next highest ring, you score it by that ring.

Honor system for scoring. This is really for fun, and a way to hopefully get one to practice the postions for the forced position lanes. 

Post a picture of your best card in one or more categories by the end of the match period (usually one week). I'll keep 4 (standing/scope, standing/peep, kneeling/scope and kneeling/peep) running tallies of the scores for the weeks match in the initial post.

This match ends Sunday, January 24th, 2021 at midnight EST.

Didn't get a chance to shoot as much this week. A bit of a slide, but feeling comfortable and when missing, knowing why.

Ran out of the targets, so used some official 10m targets I had. 

Onwards to perfection... or at least competency 😁

Leo, that's why I use the JSB Simply pellets. I can blame any bad shots on it being a flier due to a bad pellet. 😁 Really though, I also practice from the sitting position and I would say that about one in every twenty five shots is a serious flier. 

Matt, you know you're dialed in when an 8 is a bummer. My goal is no 8's in kneeling and no 7's in standing. 

Let's do it again this week.
