the 75-foot range which has never
been edualled in the history of the
national indoor rife championships.
OF ten members Of the team. nine
turned in perfect score In the sixth
OF the ten matches shot during the
winter for the championship while
the tenth member. who has already
had several perfect scores to his
credit, dropped two shots for q total
Of 19s out OF 200.
It is a are feat for a team to turn
In a perfect score for a match which
requires perfect scores to be regis
tered by the five highest shooters on
the team. Yet the Quinnipiac shoot
ers not only turned In five perfect
scores but nine. all but n of the
entire team membership. The condi-
tons of the national indoor matches
allow ten members of q team 70
shoot, the scores OF the Ave highest
being the scores Of record.
Three times in the first seven
matches shot by the Q%uinnipiac team
this winter have perfect team scores
of 1000 been made. a new record for
a team for any n season. Two of
the other six matches shot have re-
suited in team scores OF 900 while IN
two matches the mark set was e97,
q mark which woul ordinarily be
considered an excellent one to turn
in. As a result of the shooting the
team has done It is well IN the lead
OF all the teams in the tournament
and has an excellent chance of win
ming the seasons championship with
but three matches remaining to be
shot.
What Such n Score Means
What this record means is more
clearly seen when 1t Is understood
that each man must make twenty
consecutive b~ullseyes on a half-incf
bull at 10 feet. Furthermore Ave diff
ferent targets are used and the
shooter himself is required to change
his targets by reaching up and pull
ing a control lever after each foul
shots. In making the phenomenal
record OF nine 200 scores and one
19S the ten shooters on the Quinni-
piao team shot 1913 bullets Into tbs
bullseye out of zoo bullets fred.
In two other matches the Quinni-
piac team has made a perfect score
of 1000, there being hv shooters
each time who achieved perfect
scores. But In no other match or
the records of the association so fai
as known have more than five per
feet scores been hot in a single
match under the championship con-
ditions.
In their first seven matches the
Ouinnipiac club team has scored O
total of 6,992 N of 1000.
An interesting feature OF the rec
ord which the Quinnipiacs made last
winter is the fact that they are using
a new small bore rifle, the ~ caliber
Winchester Box magazine bolt action
which was used by twelve OF the
twenty shooters on h American IN
ternational Small-Bore team which
defeated England by "a points at the
national matches at Caldwell las
summer. Such a record with a new
rifle is all the more remarkable be-
cause of the feeling OF SO many
shooters that they will not be abl'
to make such good scores
