We arrange several international postal matches, these are either 25m, 50m & 100m for AirRifle and 50m, 100m & 200m for Rimfire. The matches ultimately leading to an overall ranking table. The rules are kept to a minimum and all that wish to compete, showing honesty & integrity, may do so. Entrance to the competitions are free and Certificate will be provided for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in both AirGun and Rimfire.

Digi2496,

Your English really is not all that bad! I understood every point you were trying to make. The only issue I have is, where can I view one of these Targets as there was no attachment or reference to any website?

Never mind! I found the LINK over on the Rimfire side, and here it is:

Great Idea

I have been hoping for a PRONE air rifle game. I used to shoot rim fire prone in the 80's. I am setting up and practicing with a TM1000 .177 on Caldwell Bi-Pod for the US Field Target Nationals near my home in Houston Texas. At 76 years old my greatest challenge will be getting in and out of the prone position 30 times over the two day match.

I am a match director for Bench Rest competitions and will add this prone game to our activities. I may be the only shooter for a while as one of our group could never get in to a prone position and we have another with back problems. One or two others may play.

Thanks for contacting us here in the US.

Hello Bob,

Thanks for your post and hopefully you like that *game*. Remember I update the targets for the USA-B paper size for airgun and rimfire. In case of doubt, I'm here!!!.

Best regards,
:eek:
 
I did a print on Ledger (US "B") they are tight Bob, but they work a lot like the WRABF's

no scaling etc etc etc
