Windy, windy day in the 12-15 mph range all match. Mostly tailwind but switching left AND right. The Hunter...

I guess 10 shooters can look at those pictures of groups and you'll get 10 diff opinions. In the left group, I see distinct round, grey rings on a few of the holes. IMHO, looks like the ragged holes...

9 Shooters - 2 Hunter Rifle, 7 VFS

Gentle breeze conditions starting at 10am and 85 degrees but ending with switchy flags and Hot in the upper 90's. ...

We were talking score shooting...does it make any difference if shooting groups?

Looks like no harm, no foul since it does not involve a 'record bull'. I'm looking on page 31 of 'Official Score Shooting Competition Rules' (NBRSA.com). Section 11.3.4 on 'Penalties' only...

This reference to the Creedmoor Method made me look into the Creedmoor Match itself. Seems that the Creedmoor, NY Black Powder Target Rifle Matches of the 1870's are at the root of our Benchrest...

Thanks Jackie. I saw this pop up while doin a Google for Creedmoor Method. Maybe my initial post got too far in the weeds but I am mostly trying to figure out the reference to Creedmoor Method that...

Yes, I agree with that scenario. Seems to be same as what Bill stated earlier. You go back to Bull #1 on Target #1 and the shooter with lowest score losses, or "misses", hence, the phrase "miss and...

Bill, you are correct . That is standard scoring procedure, I believe, and it is called "miss and out". That phrase, and "best edge scoring" used to be in rule book but no longer.
I am looking for...

Pertaining to SCORE Shooting -
In the NBRSA rules, there is a pretty good explanation of how to settle ties in yardage aggregate and grand agg match ties. Even how to settle a 250-25X tie. ...

Not postponed. Not rescheduled. ARC's monthly benchrest match for March 29 is CANCELED.

For everyone's safety, we're gonna follow the CDC's guidance on preventing the spread of this Chinese Flu....

I too, try to rely on common sense for a lot of things in life. There is NO medicine for this. There is NO vaccine. Old people are susceptible and we, as a group, have a lot of old men. Not a lot...
