I may give it a go. Thanks, Jack I am not sure for this year as yet. Bubba and Dawg have the targets set by the time I get there. I live 3 1/2 hours from the range. Last year the Revolver Target was set at 50 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooligan is correct. I did not read your post correctly. In my brain, I read Pistol and did not see the Lever Action Part. The targets will be set as far out as possible, next to the back berm, as that is as far away as we can place them. Last year the Firing Line was moved out from under the cover to the open field. That way we will not be behind any of the participants shooting the Plainsman Match on the next stage. We use the same target for the Lever Action Big Bore, the Lever Action Revolver Caliber, and the Rifle Caliber Single Shot Rifle. I hope this information helps.

Woody Shootem, SASS # 24816 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 How many rounds is the course of fire for the single-shot rifles? I’m assuming it’s 10 for pistol caliber lever rifle, 5 for big bore lever, and 5 for pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
