2019 Five-N-Dime Competition News

Post by skipper »

Ladies and Gentlemen, the targets are IN THE MAIL. You have until the last day of July 2019 to return them to me. Let me clarify. I must have your target IN MY POSESSION by the last day of JULY 2019. As per the stated rules, registration is closed and the targets are on their way to your mailbox. You should expect me to post results on August 1, 2019.

The return address is:
Skipper
15201 Mason Rd
STE 1000-339
Cypress, TX 77433

Good luck to all. You have three chances to win. Please, please, please, be careful. Only five shots per bulls eye for a total of 15 shots on the entire target. Yes, it's a small bulls eye. It is a CHALLENGE, after all. If you cannot see the bulls eye at 100 yards, it might be time to upgrade your scope. I'm sure most won't have that problem though.

LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL :party1:

Yeah, use your time wisely. You have till the last day of July. That should be plenty of time to find a weekend with good weather and range conditions.

At least now the road and the range in my club are open and dry. So it will really just a matter of going out one morning and firing for score. Thought about doing in in three stages. that way the rifle bore will be basically the same temp on each five shot group, out of the three. Will see. Bill K

Kinda makes you wonder why some gun manufacturer hasn't designed a rifle with a temperature gauge, doesn't it??
Smith and Wesson, Remington, Savage, Browning, CZ, Beretta, Kimber, Cooper. Anybody listening?

I have played with those stick on strips that give you a rough temp reading, but found they were kind of slow in showing temp and did not stick well on the barrel, for me anyway.
