My best target thread ?

Very Nice. We were going to have a  barrel chambered for a Dasher but went with the BRX instead.  The deciding factor was not having to buy another set of dies. They seem nearly identical when it comes to loads. We settled for 105 Hybrids (8thou off the lands) with 33.0gr of 2208 for 3000fps.  

200m fly

Hi John! That's a great target, what an amazing group!

"Santa" brought us a new Savage with a 308 Maddco barrel. I haven't shot it in comp yet but these are definitely the best groups I've shot at 300m with the .308 and I'm excited to see how it shoots at the next fly competition




Too bad we only had three of these rounds

Hi Pete thanks for doing my target mate. Looks 100% than what I tried to post

Anytime Jethro,  It was a great target.  You have to be happy with scoring the highest target in LG, especially in the conditions we had. Wish I had something worth posting but that's why I take "Trouble", this has to be her best target with the 308 , ill have to get her to show me how to shoot it :D

300m Fly at Batemans Bay Feb 2018

30BR, Ultimatum Action, Jewell Trigger, Lilja 17 twist barrel, NF Benchrest 12-42x56
AR2207, 118gn flat base jammed +.01", 3,000 fps
Light wind from right to left

Unreal Nick. That's going to be nearly impossible to beat. You and Belle have got us excited about getting a 30br or 30brx barrel, they would be fun to shoot and the 5000 plus rounds is a huge drawcard.  

I have updated the first post on this thread to show 3 of the current national records, Anthony's LG  group, Les's HG group  and John Lavaring's best group and highest score rimfire record he shot at Canberra in March.

National Records of Light Gun,

Hi Peter

The targets of Anthony's are not the current National Record they were surpassed at Wagga by myself i still have the targets somewhere i will try and get them posted.

Cheers Les

good thread mate

Hey Les,

Yep, mine is still the record  - It is group that Peter posted....

Unless you shot a sub 1/2 inch group and didn't tell us :)

Cheers

Anthony

Yeh sorry Anthony i only seen the agg targets and thought that was it. But to right another wrong the national HG target actually belongs to Barry Tucker who shot a screamer target at Canberra from Memory.

Still a great thread Peter and keep it going.

Les

Hi Les

It would be great if you could post those 5 targets, I know Belly did a great article on raising the bar and that features Anthony's LG and your HG aggregate scores. Ill give Barry a call and see if he has still got a picture of his target and update the front page.

Thanks

If Jethro's not shooting the highest target in LG, looks like he's shooting the best group .

Peter now you can put Judy's target up .. family affair now haha

I certainly will Stuart and you'll have to post yours. Everyone will want to see it. And here it is. My wife who has never shot the fly shoot, infact who has only shot once before in her life decided she would join us on day 3 for the 200yd rimfire to make it a real family affair. On her 2nd target she shot a 58.2 breaking the existing state record. I think Stella and I were more excited than Jude Walther KK300 Action Lilja Barrel Hoehn Tuner Jewel Trigger Built by Luke at ProCal Eley Match And she got 6 flies :D

ok mate here it is

HG Pending record target 60.02 and group

That's unreal Stuart, I'll have to put a picture of your target on the front page with the other national records. You forgot to mention you are the first person to earn the new "Screamer Patch" too. You'll have to post a picture of the patch when you get it so we can see what we are missing out on :(  

Here is a target I shot at the  NSW  State titles in June 2017.  Not quiet as good as yours but not too shabby either.
