I think Kimbo is referring to the Pistol Australia Black Powder matches (https://pistol.org.au/wp-content/upload ... -Rules.pdf ).

The Ruger Old Army qualifies for these.

Having been involved in a couple of Olympics and several Commonwealth Games, the sponsorship 'dressing' of the venues is quite exhaustive; going down from the venue itself to the athletes and anyone else appearing FOP. Chech out photos of the targets at Olympics since 1996 - they are Sius targets bu...

So, I just have to ask. Is there an "Immature Age" competition? ;-)

Either the height protruding above the muzzle shroud, or the overall dimension from the bottom of the shroud to the top of the b...

Humidity affects target dimensions and this, in turn, can change the shot value given by a target reading 'machine' if the target moisture content changes. While this will not alter a 10.9, the further out the shot, and the greater the change in moisture content of the target paper between the shot ...

It can be VERY spectacular if any lead dust gets onto the motor wiring.

Oh, the joy of being a moderator...

There is usually a delay before I find that the site has been spammed as I am in Australia and don't check the site until I have had my first cup of coffee for the morning.

Short answer - it is not an ISSF event.

the fireworks are going off here in Sydney..

.. so, best wishes to all for 2022.
