Ray, we can add 100 yd events at Chinquapin.  We would use the targets we already have in stock for 100 yd rimfire... they are "official" and in the rulebook to use for centerfire as well.  Drop me an e-mail and let me know how you'd like to organize it.  We would probably have to shoot two 5-shot targets for each 10 shot benchrest match so the shots don't get too stacked up.  IIRC, that's how they used to do it in Asheville(?)

The Schuetzenmeister of our little Verein is pretty open minded about "specialty" events. Pretty much if enough guys want to shoot a different course, he'll include it in the match weekend. (Whether it'll count for record in ASSRA or not is another matter, but at the end of the day who cares?)

It just swam into distant memory than when the "red" targets first came into use (making it easier to see bullet holes than in the "black" ones), that some were using glasses which filtered out the red so that the black bullet holes were even more visible.   Maybe that would provide RAY some help?

Great news from the Green Frog. I'll be there to help set up for 100 yd CF matches. Hoping we'll make it easier for all shooters to enjoy.
Thank you, Charlie. You've got the ball rolling.

Chris, Thanks for your fine memory. I've been using special lenses with custom coloring to help spot point of impact against the ASSRA red background. They've been very helpful.
