Perfect score in air rifle silhouette match?
Hoping to answer a question a few of us have been wondering:
I'm looking for perfect scores in Air rifle silhouette matches. Have you ever shot or seen shot a perfect score in any air rifle silhouette match (Sporter, Target or Open)? Only official matches please. If you know of any, who shot it and where?

Re: Perfect score in air rifle silhouette match?
Dustin,
Check out the following link. To qualify for a record the match has to be registered, record and long runs cannot be set in a approved match.
This link has listing for all of the silhouette records.
http://compete.nra.org/national-records.aspx
from what I see here are the scores for air rifle in a 40 shot registered match.
Open Bill Motl 39 x 40
Target Bill Motl 39 X 40
Sporter K STOLZENBERGER, DAVE IMAS, DENNIS DADIAN , BILL ROBINSON & Bill Motl 37 x 40

Re: Perfect score in air rifle silhouette match?
Thanks Paul, I have seen the records but that's not what I'm looking for. I just want to know if it has ever been done before at ANY approved match. I shot a perfect score a couple of months ago and another one this month and we are wondering if it's the only time it's been done. It doesn't seem likely but there are not a lot of people who shoot air rifle silhouette so it's possible.

Dustin,
I will see Pat Steiger, Bill Motl, and Larry Engle Saturday. I will ask them about this for you. It would not surprise me if Bill had done it, but like you I am not sure.

I don't think Bill has. He was the first person I thought would have done it.

Paul,
I believe that Long Run records can be set in any NRA sanctioned match. See NRA rule below:
17.5.1 Long Run National Records - National Records for Long Runs (consecutive hits on one type of
animal) may be set at any level of NRA Sanctioned Silhouette Competition (Approved or Registered
Tournaments).

Matthew Everingham shot a 40/40 in Brisbane (Queensland, Australia) a few years ago and I think he was using a Feinwerkbau P70FT.

Re: Perfect score in air rifle silhouette match?
Thanks. I've now heard of 5 perfect scores, all with open class rifles and all 40-shot matches. Bill Motl has one, Matthew has one and I have three. I need to get one in Sporter and Target now.fwt1712 wrote:Matthew Everingham shot a 40/40 in Brisbane (Queensland, Australia) a few years ago and I think he was using a Feinwerkbau P70FT.

Re: Perfect score in air rifle silhouette match?
I edited it so now you both look dumb
And I now have 4 perfect scores, which is 4 more than any Steiger currently has and 4 more than Pat Steiger will ever have.
