All Silhouette shooting started as a large caliber Rifle contest shot in Mexico. It is believed that in 1914, two of Poncho Villa's men had a contest to see who was the better shooter. They used the local livestock as targets and presumably that night's meal. The animals were staked out at various ranges. After WW II, the targets were changed to steel Silhouettes of animals. Around 1960, shooters from the United States were crossing the border to shoot the competitions in Northern Mexico, which lead to the sport being shot in 1968 in Arizona. The NRA recognized the sport in 1972 and started sponsoring Matches. From this, several versions with modified Distances are now shot.
Small Bore Rifle uses 1/5 scale targets at 1/5 the distances that the Large Bore Rifle uses. Small bore is any .22 Rim fire using ammo that has a Muzzle Velocity of 1300 ft/sec or less. Most hyper-velocity ammo is Ok but CCI Stingers or Remington Vipers and the like are not.
