If I shoot that per the rules I will be happy with hitting the A4 dot.
Plan to do it in a few weeks with the other toothless crew. Should be a laugh.

I couldn't actually see the cat at 100 let alone the rings(raining dark dingy day and 20cent scope) I could make out the lighter colored head and aimed for where i thought the long rings between it and body were but dropped low.
Would liked to have reshot that target but thats not the way I roll.

I dunno about letting the "team" down your shooting looks alright to me! Good on you getting 5 away and on target on the rabbit - doing this is harder than it sounds! Thats some nice shooting on the magpie and the coon as well.

Bit of practice and a sling would be much better

Targets printed...
Target stand modified/fixed...
rifle decision made...
Bought staples for staple gun...
Found some spare time...

AND IT'S FUCKEN RAINING

I know how you feel

Your not wrong, I had a bit of a play trying to get 5 shots out of a 4 shot magazine in 35secs,its a mission And the .22 is little better as it tube fed .Hope to get them shot in the next day or so if the weather clears.

I try and attend a shoot run down in Wanganui every year that has basically this as part of the shoot. 5 shots on a NZDA metric 100m target (scaled down to fit on A3) placed at 100m. You start the event a generous 5m back from the line with your rifle in one hand and your ammo in the other. Everyong runs forward, loads their rifle and shoots (2 teams of 4 on the line at a time). You are not allowed to start loading your rifle/magazine until you reach the firing line. You have 30 seconds regardless of what type of rifle you have. I ussually use my Sako Vixen in .223. Several guys use AR15s. We plan on it taking 15 seconds to move forward and load your rifle giving you 15 seconds to fire your 5 shots. It is a serious challenge and not one i expect everyone to complete - 3 scoring shots is better than 5 misses though!

Good on you Gillie...

I'll give it a go this weekend if things work out.

Chosen rifle is my old faithful Remmington 552 Speedmaster ..... be interesting to see how we get on under the time pressure.

Been practsing loading the tube.... got it under 8 secs now so might stand a chance

Cheers
