I need to print on heavier paper, holes weren't clean enough for a good overall scan.

By my count... an 89/200.
Beeman P17
BSA Red dot
Gamo Match wadcutters (need better pellets)
Standing, 2 hand (hand in hand not 2 on gun)
5m
Just under 12 min.

Although I haven't entered before, I have shot many of the targets, I found it very difficult to see the POI if buried in the black/blue without walking to the target between shots. Not enough contrast for my aging eyes. Might try a rifle version tomorrow...

Nice shooting there Bean, I agree there isn't much contrast between the black and blue, I had to keep walking down to the target to see which ones I had shot. makes it intresting though. Smile

Week 61

82/200

5M, 1-hand, open sights, RWS Basic

There could be 28 more points in there, but it is very hard to declare a 'touch'. I also shot one twice - so I took the lower score (3 instead of 10) and scored the one I was supposed to shoot as 0.

Very hard target

Disqualified - no pic

edits for the wrong week and my piss-poor math Embarassed

Not sure we were suppose to do one for both weeks but I decided to go ahead and shoot since I got my replacement P17 today.

Week 61

98/200 - tougher to score some of the close ones with the domed pellets.
A few could be argued better, a few worse
