.22 BENCH REST SHOOT QUESTIONS

I have worked all so hard to have a BR shoot at our club, I have made 22 br benches, and we have lights LEFT RIGHT CENTER, that make it like daytime, shoot is going to b 50 yards, NOW this is where I need help.

I been to many other shoots, the target I WAS CONSIDERING A RED 3 INCH ON A 5.5 X 5.5 CARDSTOCK PAPER WHICH IS RED, AND HAS AN X OF ABOUT .25 INCH. this is what we were shooting at 75 yards, but since I have only fifty yards thought this would do the same.

I LIKE THE 10 DOLLAR ENTRY FEE FOR 10 SEPARATE SHOOTS,

2 SHOTS PER CARD, PULL ALL CARDS AND CLOSET TO X GETS POT, AND 2 CLOSET 2 SHOT GROUP GET ALL THE QUARTER BOARD, EVERY ROUND HAS A QUARTER BOARD, AND THIS GOES ON TILL YOU HAVE 10 SEPARATE MATCHES.

THING IS THIS SMALL X MAY HAVE 2 MANY CLOSE GROUPS IN THEM AND MAY BE HARD TO GET A WINNER, NOT SURE BUT WHAT I WAS TOLD, THEY SAID "OH AT 50 YARDS WE WILL PUT IN SAME HOLE" AT TIMES I SAY, BUT I DO NOT THINK CONSISTENTLY, I FEEL THAT WOULD MAKE A GOOD NIGHT OF SHOOTING.

DO YOU GUYS AGREE, OR IF NOT TELL ME DIFFERENT WAYS YOU DO IT, I LIKE THE IDEA OF A SEPARATE QUARTER BOARD EACH TIME FOR 10 TIMES PLUS THE WINNING X GET THE POT. THAT WORKED GREAT AT 75 YARDS, BUT NOT SURE AT 50, 50 OTHER PLACES WAS ALWAYS SHOOT 50 SMALL CIRCLES FOR SCORE BUT FOR HERE I WANT TO USE 1- 5.5 X 5.5 TARGET FOR THAT IS MY SIZE OF THE HOLDERS I MADE.

GIVE ME SOME OPTIONS OR KEEP IT THIS WAY OR WHAT HAVE YOU DONE OR THINK WOULD BE COOL?
 
Hi,

Our club does a .22 BR shoot every Friday night.

The targets they use are the USRA 50/50 target, which you can see on their website: http://www.ir5050.com/ (at the bottom left there is a link to the target image.)

Sounds like fun!
