2006 P-Dog Gun - Postal Match

With Graybeard, Quick and Mac’s permission.

Thought we might have a little match before the P-Dog Shoot, just for the H&R/NEF smallbore/varmint rifles.  There is NO entry cost or prizes.  Only the usual bragging rights, I myself will not submit my targets since I will be scoring (my groups are usually just one hole anyway; let the BS begin).  The target measuring instruments have already been certified by the National Institute of Measurements and buried in a pickle jar in my back yard where only Harley (my yellow lab and the smartest person I know) knows the exact location, just waiting for the first entry to arrive.  Harley will be the backup scorer and verifier.

Thinking of 3 Classes.

Class I – Rimfire
Class II – Centerfire (Hand Loads)
Class III – Centerfire (Factory Loads)

These rules apply to both Rimfire and Centerfire:

This is for NEF and H&R firearms only.
No restrictions on optics.
5 shot group.
3X5 card for target.
Range - 100 yards.
Stable rest allowed.
No limit on number of entries of targets/cards mailed to me.

Rimfire Rules:
Only these are allowed 17 M2; 17 HMR; 22 LR and 22 Magnum.

Centerfire Rules:
Only these are allowed 204 Ruger; 22 Hornet; 223 Remington; 22-250 Remington and 243 Winchester.

SCORING SYSTEM:

Size of Group (inches) + Distance of group from center point (inches) = SCORE

Size of Group: center-to-center distance of the two holes furthest from each other.
Distance of Group from Center Point: Average distance of each center-point-of-holes to center-point-of-target.

Information to include on all targets/cards:

Nickname on the board (required)
Real name (optional)
Date target was shot (required)
Weather conditions (required)
Description of Firearm (required)
Caliber (required)
Hand Load Data (optional), if Factory rounds (Required)
Type of Sights, iron or glass (required)
Modifications done to firearm (optional)

Since the Oklahoma P-Dog Shoot is 9-12 June, Cards/targets to be in my mailbox by Friday 2 June.  PM or email me 'michael.lafever@mindspring.com” for the snail mail address. I need about 3-4 days driving time.  Will have them scored and posted before I leave.

Lets be ready for those Oklahoma P-Dogs.

I see nothing wrong with it...excepting by those who might shooting their 243's at the P-dog shoot might want a crack at it,but that would be entirely up to you and them ?????????

Sound good, Mike.

I also believe you should participate as well, should you want to.

There are many members on the site who have met you, myself included, who would certainly vouch for your honesty and integrity.  The fact that you excluded yourself is an example of your character.

Heck, its just a tune-up and for fun anyway!  Get in on it!

Edited to include 243 Winchester.  Sorry, did not remember any 243s last year, but still should add them.

Since the Oklahoma P-Dog Shoot has firmed up the dates.  I now can set the final deadline for this Postal Match to Friday June 2.  I must receive entries in my mailbox by that date.  Thanks.

Open to members here, must have nickname on this forum.

Open to all even if you cannot make the PDog shoot in Oklahoma.

Must be one of the 9 H&R/NEF chamberings (PDog Guns) in a H&R/NEF firearm listed in the rules at the top of this thread.

Target must have a center point to measure from.

Remember scoring is the combination of group size and accuracy.  Does no good to have 1/2 inch qroup at 100 yards, if that group is 6 inches to the right of the PDog.

Mitchell, thanks for the idea, I will come up with some targets and mail them to whoever wants them.  Or you can use your own.

ps: My oldest son called me last night, number 9 grandchild is on the way in October.  Mother to be is 38, this is a surprise baby.  Life is grand!!!
