The ram is 6 inches wide. If you can't see that at 100 yards, you might need to see an eye specialist.
What position is the shooting done from? And any other rules.
Standing Off hand as per silhouette rules. Heavy and light rifle categories. I will put out the total shoot specifics by next week.
Yesterday I spent the day with a couple of the guys prepping the range for the shoot. 3 weed whackers one lawn mower and 4 hours later we finished.
