BTT Lots of fun!

Back to the top with the new date.  Looks like beyond the normal range of targets for another $5, you can try your luck as Jim Lane.

Being of a curious mind, there is something I need to ask.

2. Course of Fire: Total for regular match and special target is 36 rounds
a. Regular Match (Cartridge and Cap and Ball Categories). 30 rounds, total as follows:
i. 12 rounds at "Bull's-eye" target 10 paces
ii. 6 rounds at "Candle" target 10 paces
iii. 6 rounds at "Ace of Spades" target 5 Paces
iv. 6 rounds at " metal" targets 10 paces
b. Special Event Target (optional) 6 rounds at the 10 Paces

For cap and ball revolver, is the requirement 2 revolvers or is there time allowed to reload 1 revolver?

[Mogorilla]

Time to reload.  You place your target, then cap at the line.  When you have fired your 6, take down your target and go load chambers.  Bring back when there is a spot (usually 5 to 6 on the line firing at once, not your typical sass/ncows shoot), replace target and cap.    The metal targets are woodpeckers and more like 15 paces.  they are the bane of my shooting existence.

[Windy City Joe]

Hot Hands Hannah and myself will be there.

Mogorilla, thank you kindly for the information.  I would love to attend the James Farm shoot some day, but I am afraid it is a goodly walk from Central California.  I shoot with a small group of Cap and Ball revolver shooters here on the west coast and thought it would be a hoot to put together a similar match.
