There are many different kinds of pistol
silhouette shooting competitions. Originally designed to include as many
different types of pistol cartridges and firearms as possible, so anyone could
shoot the game. Unfortunately this was only successful for a short time before
the specialist got into the act with equipment designed to move the shooter and
the sport to a much higher level. It happens with all shooting games, but
silhouette shooters really advanced the caliber of shooting. All is not
lost, this advanced technology has given us higher expectations than we ever
considered possible from our pistols. It is now possible to buy many
different pistols, capable of sub minute-of-angle accuracy, something rarely
seen twenty years ago. However the thought that someone will be
competitive at a high level with most off the shelf guns is pretty much lost.
Shooting is done at metallic targets cut into four different shapes, a chicken,
a javelin, a turkey, and a ram. Targets can be at ranges from 40 yd to 200 yd.
shooting is generally done from a standing position, with no artificial rest.
generally shooters get 2 to 2.5 minutes to fire 5 rounds.
EQUIPMENT:
A Thompson/Contender is a good basic
gun....with a 10" 22 long rifle barrel, a 10" 357 magnum barrel, and a
good set of iron sights on each, you will be able to shoot almost any match
available.
