Click here to view or download a single bull sample of the official five bull target. Targets will be sent to you by Daryl. They are like the one he posted on the forum thread. It provides a reasonable sight picture for most open sights. It has 5 bulls. 1 shot per bull. It will be the "Official" target and have your 'handle', written on it. Please send gun info with your entry fee, ie: CALIBRE, POWDER & CHARGE, BALL SIZE, PATCH & LUBE PARTICULARS, FLINT, PERC, MATCHLOCk. Send your entry payable by International Money Order, cheque or cash. Send your entry fee to Daryl. His address is posted on the ALR postal match thread. Fees are; $3.00 to cover mailing and target. You can enter more than once, $3.00 for one target, $5.00 for 3, $7.00 for 4, etc. One practice target will be sent to each entrant. Entry date - targets must be returned postmarked by 15th of May, 2006 Daryl
will keep track of the number of targets each person has. Every target
WILL be returned and scored. Multiple targets from one shooter will be agg'd.
That is, an aggregate or average string measure will be computed for a separate
category, minimum of 2 targets for the agg score. If you want to practice on these bulls, you can go to Staples or some other 'like' stationary place, and they will photocopy an Official target for you for pennies per target - or - scan one bull 5 times and make up your own practice 'target' on printing/ink-jet paper. It will not be an official target though.
The Shooters, in no particular orderShooters will be posted as their entries are received and forwarded by Daryl. If you have entered and do not see your name on the list below, get in touch with Daryl on the ALR board. Some shooters are registered for more than one match, eg., rifle/smoothie, as well as for additional targets if they chose to shoot an aggregate. The list of entrants does not reflect that but the final shooting results will.

of all, my profound thaks to those who participated. It takes a great deal of
intestinal fortitude to 'lay it out on the world wide web'. |
