Take-5© .22 Rimfire, Pistol and Rifle
Blazer-Close Stage World Records
the distance between plates is reduced to 12", compared to 48"
| The original Blazer stage
is fun for everyone - experienced and new shooters alike. The Blazer
records have been maintained for several years. After our World
Championship Match in 2010, we experimented with the plate spacing.
The plates are six (6) large rectangular
plates (18" x 24") arranged in a semi-circle 9 yards from the shooting box. The plates
were originally
separated by a distance of 4' edge to edge. From the ground to the bottom of
each plate is 4'. We moved them to 2', then to 1' spacing - right,
only 12"! The rules are still the same -- handgun shooters shoot five (5) sequential plates, beginning at one end or the other. For example, if you shoot left to right, you would begin at the far left plate and your stop plate (the last plate you shoot) is the second from the right. This is the fifth plate and your stop plate. Rifle shooters shoot all six (6) plates in sequence, beginning at either end. This makes the plate at the far end from where you begin your stop (last) plate. Hitting plates out of sequence is acceptable, as long as the stop plate is hit last. If your stop plate is hit out of sequence, time stops and all un-hit plates are scored as misses. Take-5Ó shooter's are encouraged to retain their times so that they can see how they have done - and how they have improved. |
