Safari Silhouette shoot
0900 Saturday 28 May 2016
Fusilier Complex
Ishmael Road, Arnaudville, Louisiana
On the skun side of one week from now, we will hold a silhouette shoot intended to draw a few handgunners out of the shadows. Six banks of targets will be shot, divided into three distances: 50, 100, and 200 yards.
50 yds
Chickens, with a turkey or two.
100 yds
Pigs, with a turkey or two.
200 yds
Rams, possibly with a chicken or turkey.
Handgun
Any centerfire handgun above 22 caliber that does not cause target damage. Any sights.
Time
30 seconds to load & prepare.
2.5 minutes to shoot one bank (increased from originally announced two minutes, as there will be some additional targets).
Rounds
You may reload and keep shooting until all your targets are on the ground or you run out of time.
Position
Permitted:
Any safe position in which the gun does not touch the ground, and which clears anatomy of a 45-degree cone described by the bore axis and emanating from the muzzle.
Any freestyle position from Creedmoor to Standing.
Sandbag.
Benchrest.
Sissy sticks.
Bipod.
Verboten:
Cradle rests.
Must have padding for elbow if elbow comes into contact with concrete shooting deck or concrete bench rest table. Must have blast shield to shoot Creedmoor with a revolver.
Sighters
Sighter gong @ 50 yds, possibly @ 100 and/or 200 yards.
Registration
Pre-registration required, as there are two sets of targets and entries are limited. This is a shoot, not a tournament. Go to Fusilier Complex website for registration and waiver. $10 per entry.
There are no categories of skill or gun, and no trophies. If we can guarantee one thing, it is that you exit the shoot knowing at least as much as you did when you stepped to the Line.
