Re: Drawing or photo of resettable targets
That is great. Your engineering is right on the money. I am considering extending my targets down about 6 in below as a hinge point and using a pull cable similar to what I have on my cable-pull combat/cowboy KD rack for resetting them. And if the "Surplus Center" in LNK has a decent deal ...

Drawing or photo of resettable targets
**== **== **== **== **== I recently had to get a new phone and I lost many photos that wouldn't transfer. 8-| I had pictures of the KD & reset mechanism for the .22 targets on Range Four at the Ike's near Bennet, NE. If anyone has a successful resetting system and wouldn't mind sharing some imag...

Re: What's your handle mean?
I've been Mustang Gregg for 40+ years.
I first got called it by accident (from an unhappy neighbor).
It has been my Army Aviation call sign.
And it is my SASS alias too.
And I have been working on old Fords for years.

Re: Target facing direction rules?
Thank you, Jim! I appreciate the fast answer and the clarification. With the NRA way of thinking of facing them all the same direction can definitely be more confusing. And I don't think facing them opposite directions is really a disadvantage. Thank you and now we have a general plan to get started...

Target facing direction rules?
I have started building an IHMSA small bore rope reset-KD range. We have been away from silhouette shooting for quite a while and I have been told that there are specifically facing directions for the banks of targets. We are building eight banks of five targets. I am planning on having the left fiv...

Cast .25 Cal shooters....25 TCU question
**== **== I am putting together an XP that I'd like to try shoot cast bullets through. It has a new Shilen stainless 1:9" twist and I have not slugged it. I used to have a TC barrel in .256 WM that shot .257" bullets great. I'd like to ask if most of you shoot bullets sized to .257" o...

Amount of force to topple targets
**== **== **== **== **== I have gotten back into IHMSA after 30 years. I am building some knockdown racks for smallbore shooting. I see there is a recommended amount of force to KD each of the air pistol targets. Is there a recommended amount of force to drop each of the smallbore animals that I sho...

Re: Unlimited rules question
I know that if I buy a new unbarrelled action (never was ever a rifle), I can put a barrel that is UNDER 16" on it and call it a handgun with NO NFA or BATFE issues. This has been done lots of times legally with virgin bare AR-15 type actions. But going into the area of a rifle or a barrelled a...

Unlimited rules question
Would a Remington M700 SBR (all NFA approved) in .223 Rem caliber be IHMSA legal when all of IHMSA dimensions and weights are met?
I'm talking about a firearm with a 15" barrel, repeater action, rear grip, scope (for UAS) at 5.5# be okay for competition?

2019 packet was not all there?
**== **== **== **== **== I have signed up for IHMSA again after quite a few years. I just got my 2019 packet with the envelope all torn up. It appears that I should have gotten a 2019 score card, decal, templates, rulebook, etc. The monthly periodical was there, but nothing else. What am I missing? ...
