where in OH ?We had our 1st and only N50 match in October which was a blast BTW and so much so that we have 7 additional sanctioned matches scheduled for 2023 April - October. After our event I polled the shooters as to what we could do to improve future events and the most requested was to add or incorporate a 100Y event too. Initially in 2023 we are going to offer the standard 3 card N50 match plus an additional 2 card 100Y match following the N50. We will try this for the first couple of matches to see what the consensus is from the shooters before we commit to adding this for the remainder of the matches. As suggested by Mike we will be using the following and slightly more forgiving 200Y targets for our 100Y event:
National Target International Bench Rest Shooters Target IBS 200 YD
These heavy paper targets are great for practice or competition.www.midwayusa.com
I have been combing through the AGN reading threads while I ......... patiently ......... wait for my Thomas to arrive sometime in the spring of 2023. Initially I had planned to dedicate my HPX to 50Y events and use another rifle for 100Y but it got me wondering if any of you 50Y BR shooters are or have used your Thomas for both distances? Other than knowing your scope dope adjustments ahead of time, what would one do to prepare the same Thomas rifle for both distances?
Mike, if you are reading along, do you do anything different to the rifles that you have experimented with at both distances? I vicariously have read through your 100Y threads and wondered if yours was a 100Y only purpose built rifle or were you just seeing what your standard BR rifle was capable of at longer distances? I wonder if Jeff Hernandez does anything particular to his Thomas to prepare for both distances?
