Do you have Airgun Varmint Competitions?

Hi, guys!

We have several types of Airgun Varmint Competitions in Russia. But all of them have much in common - you have to hit the 4cm round target at the distances from 50 to 120 meters. We have 20 shots and 15 minutes for completing the task.

Here are some videos of how it goes:

Yesterday the second stage of 50-100 meters airgun Varmint took place. I've taken the 1st place in my class and got the best result over all the competitions. About 20 shooters took part in competitions.

Here is the version with shooting for lazy bones only (short version):


And here is FULL version of my shooting during the competitions. 


Video is made with RusBear's ScopeCam.

JKing, there are 2 types of airgun varmint in Russia (at least is's European part).

1 - from 50 to 100 meters (11 targets): you have to hit the target one after another and put it in horizontal position on the base. We have 20 shots and 15 minutes to do it. http://www.airgunnation.com/topic/do-you-have-airgun-varmint-competitions/#post-189609

2 - from 50 to 120 meters (15 targets): the target is counted as hit in the case when paint is damaged in frontal zone of the target's circle. We have 20 shots and 15 minutes to do it. But shooter can choose which target to shoot (it is not obligatory to shoot one after another). The last video is this very variant. After shooting the judges of every shooter go to the targets and check if there was a hit or not.

In both variants target size is 4cm.

I shoot with .22 caliber and JSB 1.175g (18gr) pellets.
 
I've taken the 1st place in 7th stage of Airgun Varmint on 50 - 120 meters distance and I've made the best result ever on this shooting range and by these rules!

This is shooting only video . The targets are set from 50 to 120 meters every 5 meters. The size of the target is 4cm diameter, we have 20 shots and 15 minutes hit them all! In the third match I've managed to hit all the targets without misses!!!
