As the weather gets less and less suitable for outdoor shooting and matches, I'm going to run an ongoing postal 10 meter standing, and this year, kneeling matches. It’s a good way to rouse one’s self to practice whatever one’s particular discipline is during the colder months.
This year 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.
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 supposed to be fun as well as incentive to practice.
Post a picture of your best card 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 that match period on the initial post.
First match ends Sunday, December 6th at midnight EST.

Let the curses drifting up from the basement begin!
