Review: Helikon Backblast Shooting Mat & Bisley: 600 Yards On Century And
The package that had landed on the doormat was smaller and lighter than I expected, all the club mats are bulky affairs. The Helikon boys include a pouch for ten rounds, and a windowed pouch, both of which velcro on to the mat.
The mat’s got grippy sections for your knees and elbows and a moveable velcro backed grippy bit for the hand that supports the rifle’s butt.
There are pockets for your tent pegs; so you can keep the matt flat. Obviously I could have used any old tent pegs from the gear pile, but I’ve ordered some poncey titanium ones to keep in with the lightweight theme.
Automation hasn’t made it to Century range yet and behind and below the butts there’s a manual raising and lowering mechanism for the targets. We took turns providing the muscle power to lift the targets into place and mark the scores.
There are two parts to scoring. A spotting disc, which is actually square, which is pinned to the face of the target marking the bullet hole and the scoring panel that runs along the bottom edge of the board. Your best potential score is five points for a Bull, but to serve as a tie-breacker the Bull has an inner ‘VBull’ ring which scores separately. So a ten-shot competition has a highest possible score of 50.10. Ten 5′s and 10 VBulls
Orange in the hole on the far left would be a score of – One Point
Black on the far left a score of Two Points
Black left a ‘magpie’ – Three Points
Black right – Four Points
Black far right – Five Points
Orange on the far right a VBull.
