Warning if you come out to PSC next week it is their anal (pun) Larry Ingle Memorial 10/22 match. Basicly a semi auto match with 45 seconds instead of 2 minutes for your bank of 5.....
Other then that come out to BRI or PSC and we'll get you hooked up. There are several members here on this forum.

That subject title had me going for a minute, I had visions of sitting in my living room shooting "mini-silhouettes" off the top of the tv during commercials with my new mini-silhouette rifle!!! ;)

For your information in Mexico the sport of SB rifle silhouette shooting has always been called mini siluetas or minis, the HP version Siluetas Metalicas and the SB Hunter Pistol (which they shoot with .22 pistols, ONE hand hold a la International with iron sights, NO optics at 25, 50, 75 and 100 meters) is called Maxi Siluetas or Maxis.

I've always heard that silhouette came across the border in the highpower discipline and was scaled down by the Americans for 22's then migrated back to mehico, anyone know for certain?
Strange ancestory this game, invented by mexicans, shot mostly by americans, with german rifles more often than not with british ammunition looking through american made scopes with japanese glass.
