    I'm up for this one.... Do we have to stick to the same gun through the comps, or can any pre 86 gun be used?

    I hope so, as I have a few pre 86 air-rifles that I wouldn't mind using.

    Or can we submit as many as we like?? ( There's a question for you Jim )

    Regards
    Paddy.

    Good question, James! The answer is: the more, the merrier! I want this to be a REAL fun shoot: so you can stick with one gun, enter 2 or more guns a month, enter a different gun(s) every month, etc!

    Good news there Jim

    Expect about 5 seperate scores from me.

    You could add them altogether & I'll nearly get a decent score

    Post a link to the pdf or post the targets to your home?

    Will try and find the link, and bung it up on this thread
    Failing that, I'll upload it to the UBC Site (due for a bit of an update soon)

    Take care

    Probably best to post a link to the pdf: that way everyone who want to participate can more easily print out their targets.

    OK, mates: those will be our RIFLE targets for August. So all you Vintage rifle shooters: print 'em out and start practicing.

    We'll need a bigger scoring circle for pistol, though.

    This is going to be purely an occasional and fun shoot - NO cumulation of scores - and we're going to use DIFFERENT targets each time.

    Targets for Vintage Shoot

    Jim
    I think you are still in the UK at present but when you get this I need to know if my 1959 Daisy is elegible since it pokes the BB out with a rod?
    Yes I got it from new thanks to an aunt in Canada, Christmas 1960 when I was 11.
    Is there a "Doddering old fart" smiley?
    What about the old Red White & Blue Webley Target?

    vintage shoot

    i'm up for it and would be pleased to offer any member who would like to enter but has no vintage gun one of mine for the competition,i'm afraid this would have to be from my close area and if a local(reasonably close perhaps 20 miles from canvey island) then not only would i enter but i would bring all my vintage guns to allow more shooters to try them.i'm at present trying to introduce bell target shooting to my stamping ground with as yet small response but it grows.more to the point i reckon all of the members of the club i frequent would probably come too.regards nik

    Nice idea Nik,

    However it will be an email/postal comp as are all the UBC comps
    It would be a bit of a drag for the comp organiser to run back and forth from New Orleans every month.

    What would be a good idea though if, like you say some locals (to you) could all get together and enter

    They would (as would you) have to sign up and Join the UBC
    The membership is a bit on the steep side costing £0.00p per year.

    Check out the umarex boys club sticky for further details.

    Take care
