I offer a prize of 15 USD for the tightest shot group at 50 meters. Must be a 5 shot string, caliber and rifle/optics are up to the shooter.
Post picture of target, with 2 signatures (forum ID/nickname) and I will paypal the proceeds
Target to be used is the
Shot group size is the scoring criteria, not bullseyes. Have fun, and burn some powder for me!

You may want to specify shooting position, unsupported, etc...

I don't have a printer right now, is that a standard NRA target?

Does a #2 pencil count?

Doesn't matter.
Yogi forgot to specify, that target is shown actual size.
BTW, there should also be a trophy, not just a cash prize.
So I'm thinking, apropos of the founder of the award (and what I was actually afraid this thread would be about), someone should rattle can one of these in metallic gold Krylon:

Winner gets to display* it for 1 year until the next RR.
*(hopefully on the mantle, and NOT as an article of clothing in any way)

This makes me think we should do some postal matches. Has anyone here ever done one of those? They're pretty fun. The ones I've done were with specific cold war commie service pistols. My daughter won one, so I gave her the pistol she shot with.

I've done them. Our national blackpowder league is shot as postal matches. Also, there's a national precision shooting competition shot once a year here, it's shot at local ranges and the result is sent in to the national organisation to be put together as one complete list. And there is an IPSC cup where the local clubs shoot four specified classifiers every month and send in the results to a complete list.
