10) Entries need to be scanned or photographed and posted. Please list gun type, ie; Pistol or Rifle, pellet, sighting device and total time expended. .
11) You can enter using both a pistol and a rifle as separate entries, only one entry for each, but all rules must be followed.
12) Score your own target. Winner and Runner-Up will be verified by board officials.
13) An honourable contest for sport- to lie or cheat, is the only real loser. Please keep it above-board!
14) Each competition runs from Monday to Sunday. Your entry must be posted in the forum no later than 23:00 GMT Sunday.
15) These rules are for this week's shooting competition and may change for others

I think the random placed bull worked to my benefit, I just shot for the middle of the circle. The practice shots were done at the end were done on a rest to see if it was the gun or me. It's still me but feeling better about it.
I shot my new H&N Sport 13.73 gr wadcutters. The skirt seems thin and fragile? Is that going to be a problem and something to watch for with these more expensive pellets/
Most of my shots were in the circle. I've been working on my trigger control and fine tuning my scope using a rest along with my hold practice.
Before I shoot with the rest I stand up and hold on the target then move up and down, back and forth, circle right, circle left and do up/down & left right figure eights over the bull, ever so small movement as I can do.
At work I hold 5lb dumbells at arms length for holds and shoulder movements simular to how I hold over the bull. |

Toward what? Kick my dumb a$$ off the forum?  
I'm happy to post my best efforts, I'll add the details but no one need fear me as a challanging competitor. |

Thank you. Still lucky quite a bit but I'm feeling better about it. Trigger control seems to be a big deal even when shooting with a rest and holding on the bull is still a big challange.
It's still fun and I just bought 1750 pellets so I got to use the up on something. |
