One more Grand Slam
Just got back from our club's air rifle silhouette match and I'd like to toot my own horn for a moment...
I managed to complete my Grand Slam in Outdoor Sporter air rifle by hitting ten-in-a-row Rams! This makes for my third Grand Slam behind Outdoor Open air rifle and Smallbore Hunter rifle.
My understanding is there aren't too many folks that have gotten a Grand Slam in Sporter air rifle. My friend has #15 (i think) and got his not too long ago.
I'll get my form sent in this week and we'll see how long it takes to get the pin and certificate from the NRA.
Keep at it because you never know when things will come together for you!

Very nice! Not a small thing. That last animal is always the most difficult. Lots of nines before I'll bet.

Re: One more Grand Slam
You are going to have a Slam of Slams.
I wonder if anyone has achieved a Slam of all the rifle Classes? Or the Royal Slam to include handgun classes? If so,

Re: One more Grand Slam
I forgot to circle back here, but I received the pin and certificate in the mail in late September. Grand Slam pin #16!
