After shooting is complete please score your own targets, identify the category that you are shooting, and submit to (A person to be determined no later than dd/mm/yy) for final processing. There is a maximum of 100 points possible and as usual the X is still considered 10 points however is a superior shot when compared to other 10s for the purpose of determining a winner when scores are tied. When submitting targets please elaborate as to the origin, model, and date of manufacture for the rifle used. Additionally, The type of ammo and or its loading data(of course this is irrelavent here) would also be of interest here.
Please review this and offer any comments or recommendations in the forum. Please remember that this is only a proposal at this point and is not an active match.
