First Annual COTEP 'Long-Range Shoot'!

[Dave Waits]

Alex and I were kicking around an Idea last night. A long-range shooting competition with 1911s. Range will be 50yards, five shots, smallest group wins. Target will be an Official NRA B-16 twenty-five yard slowfire pistol target with a 5" bull.

RULES:
1.) Iron sights only, no laser sights, optical sights or Red-Dot sights. Any iron sights allowed.
2.) Only the numbered target you will be sent can be entered(However, you can buy as many B-16 practice targets as you want). All targets submitted must have a signed witness.
3.) Competition will be open to 9mm, 38Super. 45ACP and 10mm.
4.) Handloaded ammo is permitted
5.) You may use a rest as long as the barrel is not supported.
6.) Since our membership is so widespread, country will be divided into four regions. Each regional winner will be recognized and all four regional winners will shoot a second time to determine overall winner.
7.) Winner shall be determined by smallest group in the black measured hole-center to hole-center at widest point. Five-round group.
8.) Targets with obvious powder burns will be disqualified .

This is a fun-shoot Guys, if enough people show interest we will set up the time-table, rules finalized and any prizes we can get donated. Everybody will be on the honor-system here just like any NRA Postal-shoot.


Okay! the shoot is on! Either PM or E-mail Alex(BadOscar) your address for an official scoring target. all scoring targets must be at my address NLT 15November2013, PM or E-mail me for my address.

Sounds COOL......I've never shot a pistol any further then 30 yards, Although this sounds fun I will not partake.


Best of luck to those who do.

Does iron sights only include FO front sight? Just nit picking. I'm interested.

I like this idea......can do at my South Carolina property, if I am there during the set time table.

I'm in depending on the time schedule. Due to travel schedules, I won't be able to hit the range for about a month.

I'll be getting my shop back in operation and would be happy to donate a prize if that's of interest.

Sounds like fun but the ISRA range I belong to doesn't allow pistols on the 100yd range. I'll have to pass. I am interested in seeing the targets posted from those that do participate.
