okay, got way too careless here. Saw bullseyes and tried to shoot them quickly. One of the things I've noticed with my 10m shooting is that I'm tending to shoot too late during my peek hold time. So, thought I would work on shooting earlier in the cycle. Think I over-compensated and sometimes just shot too soon

I think I made it...
gun: Talon 6-24x50 Centerpoint (Shorty)
Pellet: RWS Supermag .177
Dist/Pos: 10m
Score 100/180

Time - just under 15 Min and that was rushing today, been doing yard work and was very shakey.

I really need to get one of my working pistols set up for 5M again. Got 2 dead CO2 pistols i just don't feel like working on.

Well guys what can I say shooters are a bit thin on the ground this shoot, anyway those that made the effort and did shoot got good scores. Well done!
