Abstract

We present CCD photometric distance estimates of 100 SCR (SuperCOSMOS RECONS) systems with 0$\farcs$18/yr, 28 of which are new discoveries previously unpublished in this series of papers. These distances are estimated using a combination of new photometry acquired at CTIO and magnitudes extracted from 2MASS. The estimates are improvements over those determined using photographic plate magnitudes from SuperCOSMOS plus , as presented in the original discovery papers. In total, 77 of the 100 systems investigated are predicted to be within 25 pc. If all 77 systems are confirmed to have 40 milliarcseconds, this sample would represent a 23% increase in M dwarf systems nearer than 25 pc in the southern sky.
