I enlarged the photo and looked at it with a magnifying glass. I'd call it 2x.
There are two tears in the paper that may make it appear that it COMPLETELY BROKE THE LINE, but those are tears.I enlarged the photo and looked at it with a magnifying glass. I'd call it 2x.
You will be surprised how often that happens if we get MORE PEOPLE SHOOTING.....Quite honestly, I'm not sure we'll ever see another target that close in scoring.
Having others (judges) involved making scoring calls when necessary will work.
Everyone................ get out and start shoot'n!
I agree that the bullet must break the lineThere are two tears in the paper that may make it appear that it COMPLETELY BROKE THE LINE, but those are tears.
You can also see many tears in the paper with the other rounds on Smokey's original target.
Everyone appreciates you taking the time and incentive to check Thank you.
Scoring.. Bullet MUST completely break the line to count a higher score.

That's all that counts in a postal match, rightI agree that the bullet must break the line......................
His is very clear not disputable in my opinion.That's all that counts in a postal match, right
Here's X-ring's target photo. That top bullet is about as close as one can get to breaking the line for an "X" score.
We'll have more questions if shooters use printer paper. The paper is tearing.

If that target fell to the ground I'd say make sure your carrying , looks like a big pile of BEAR STUFF !
One thing we should all remember..........you are really only competing against yourself. If you have a mediocre target, post up another one and try again. There are no "losers" in a postal match. X
Y'all shoot good for me to compete. I will find my bullets soon i hopeYou will be surprised how often that happens if we get MORE PEOPLE SHOOTING.....
It was a good exercise for the judges.
I know yer busier than a one legged man in a butt kicking contest this time of yr. Don't forget to squeeze some " ME TIME " in there here n there bro. Thanks for weighing in on this & being a part of it. I'm sooo glad to see this postal match started in here. This is a great idea.Yeah i gotta say its a 10.

Sorry for the late input. I werk 2 jobs this time of year.
Hunter class. Score 48. It has been quite a while since I shot the Gibbs M/L. so Smokey's postal match was a good excuse to dust it off. The wind was stupid. Naturally, I picked the wrong wind condition to shoot in so it took me 2 hours to shoot 4 sighters and then my 5 for score. The next time out I'll shoot the Gibbs using my 530 grain Postell greasers. XI plan on shooting within the next week or two.I'm sure I can beat Me.All I have to do is hit the cardboard @ 100 yds. might take a month to send it in ( posting is what I think ya call it ) I'm computer handy capped!I I might have to get one of the grand kids to help. I'm going to make some smoke and have some fun.
