Thanks to everybody who played. :hatsoff:

If I forgot to put anybody's score in, just let me know. I didn't delete anything yet. :haha:


Just to be accurate, I should have listed Bakeoven Bill ahead of RC 'cause 4 22/16 is really 5.375". But it was late and it's been a long week for me. And that whole 22/16ths thing threw me off... But then maybe I shoulda divided by 2 since RC shot at 50 yards... :hmm:
:hatsoff:
 
Sorry Jethro, forgot to list what rifle I shot this contest with. :bow: It is my "Ugly Rifle", an old CVA percussion Mountain Rifle that had a bad barrel, so I rebarreled it with a 15/16" Green Mountain .40 cal. barrel (heavy - but a good shooter with good "hang"). It has T.C. Contender open sights and I used a .400" round ball. :v I just need to learn to quite waiting till the last day, was a little windy here, but that's my fault. Thanks for the opportunity to participate, and congrats to all that was in it. :hatsoff:

See ya, Jim :thumbsup:

Congrats to all who did tho'. :thumbsup:

Diabetic **** Acidosis. This is the second time in 2 years. I've been diabetic since '76.
 
Sounds even worse when ya spell it out. But I still ain't sure what it is. :haha: Just glad to hear you're better. :thumbsup:

Take care of yourself and we'll look for ya in the next contest. :hatsoff:
