Dave, I can see the target alright...even though I only have a b&W print. What do you need to see the yellow for anyway? :bigsmile:

Print it out and see if you can see it or not. It looks like to me it ought to do at 50 meters.

It's bigger than a 50mtr .22 Rifle target and the numbers are only for scoring , you don't need to see them at more than arm's length :lol:

Be advised, I will not be in contention for any prize if I participate to the extent that I shoot in the contest.

I am interested as I own both a black powder musket (flintlock smoothbore) AND 2 Russian milsurps.

However, Spring in Canada is still a long way off !!!

Snow in Manitoba is at an all-time high and things won't start warming up for another 3 weeks at least !!!

Doesn't close till 31 st July so the snow should be gone by then :shock:

If you want to register, let me have a PM with your e.mail address and I will send your targets by return, OK :D :D

Now that's what I call a real prize. That's a prize worth competing for. Thanks for your contribution to get this contest going.

That's cool, Blackisler!

I just bought a tin of percussion caps and expect the other supplies to arrive soon.

The search for caps was turning into a quest. But I found them!
