Also- if you don't have a color printer- that's not important, but I bet being able to see the colors would make it easier!

AirGunEric
you are some lucky that I don't have a 20 meters indoor range.  
And as far as for shooting those small circles at 10 meters and using my reading glasses to see clearly the front post on my pistol those circles all in a thick fug.  |

| No nearby range, Rene? Half sized target this time would be awfully small . . . |

I think Rene needs some sort of red dot sight for his pistol!
This target has not been treating anyone very well so far. Anyone got some larger stuff for us to try the next couple of weeks? I still have a pile of saved targets I can look through and see what might be useful. |

Yes I have a cheap Cooperhead red-dot but it does not fit on my Gamo Gompact
and compete with my HW45 would be suicide.
I am good for 5 shots with the HW45 and after that everything goes to hell. |

"cheap Cooperhead red dot"- I have one of those, initially it seemed to work ok- then when I got to be a better shooter, I realized it's limitations at anything beyond about 10m. Lately, I've had nothing but scope problems- but this is based on the cheap scopes I've been trying to use. I think I've become the poster child for the idea that the cheapest scopes available are more frustrating than functional.
Anyways- anyone else getting ready to shoot on this? Someone needs to score at least a few more points- otherwise all of us may look pretty sorry when the winner gets posted up on the competition page, with a score of 2 out of 20 (and we need to see some pics if that happens- Jim  ). |

Well, under 500fps wins with 3 out of a possible 20, Jim McArthur a close second with 2!
Hmm, pistols, do better, hmmm. Am I seeing a pattern here?
Congratulations, Rene and Jim.
We'll go with the 8 bull target for the next round...  |

I'm delighted to have been runner-up, but these scores are outrageous!
I think we need less-complicated targets: something where we score points, or don't score points: but these "lose points" hits are really creaming us.

This is the novice target. The marksman target is 30 smaller targets set at 30m with the same rules . . .  |
