Howdy Bell,

Pretty neat stuff, your "bell Target" shooting is.

Living in the states here, I have never heard of such a thing.
But , I noticed a few posts on this board , and did a little research on the subject.
Quite interesting. It looks and sounds like fun.
A 3/8 bullseye would be impossible for me at this time. LOL

Thanks for posting about the sport.

Dusty

Never heard of it before.... looks like a blast.... I made up a "flip" target a couple years back for practice....





It has different size face plates for different distances.... A hit on one side flips the paddle to the other side.... Adjusting the spring allows different power rifles to be used....

I remember that bob. I finally gave up on mine and bought the gamo squirrel one with the pull rope. I just couldn't get it right. Of course my son loves to knock them down. He is getting pretty good with my 2400 custom. It smacks it down right now. I am thinking about ordering a self resetting target box from pyramyd air.

It looks fun to me!

I already have this one and it is fun to shoot too.
