Shot in my first match yesterday... the Cast Bullet Match at the Washtenaw Sportsman's Club in Ypsilanti, Michigan.  I used my 1898 Rifle with a 1902 rear sight.  Loads were 220 grain Hornady jacketed round nose bullets over 40 grains of IMR-4350 and cases were Remington (head stamp R-P 30-40 Krag).  Targets were 100 and 200 yards and my total score was 274!  Not too shabby considering I've never shot at 200 yards before - target looked like the point of a pin at that distance.  I think I could have done better if I had a more stable barrel rest, as I had my barrel rest sitting on my spotting scope case, and it was moving around some.

Here are some pictures:  The target is one of my 200 yard targets - ten rounds.  The targets shown at distance are at 200 yards.
