Keep it simple. is my advice. Under size the hole and get a bit of interference fit. Should suffice. (shrug)

Yup, targets

Depending on which range we have, we either use auto/revolvers in 22lr at 15 to 25 yards, banks of 10 balls, 30 round limit, fastest time wins, any balls still standing are a 5 second penalty. Same with iron sight carbines at 25 to 50 yards. If we have the 200 yard range available, banks of 10 at 50, 75, 100, 125 and 150 yards from a bench with various grades of 22lr "target" guns. One cold bore fouler per bank, 10 shots only. Accuracy is the only thing that counts. Savages, CZs, 10/22 builds are most popular but the occasional Annie or Suhl or Win52, etc. show up.
My big issue is time - I'm 46 and the youngest of the regular shooters, so tracking down golf balls that went flying 10 to 50 feet past the target stand is no fun, and slows the matches down too much especially when we have more than a few shooters (we can only close the public range for a 4 hour block starting at 8am on a Sunday)
Gonna go drill a few balls and take a pic of my swinger/plate set up for ya
