Edited for shot count . I did try to put the PDF on there. I guess my phone is still having technical issues or I am lol.

Gonna try to get this done tomorrow! Lol maybe I'll be first this time. Shoot 2 cards you say....I will shoot one with the TX and other with the Ghost perhaps and post both up.

@FL22 by off hand do you mean standing or sitting or is putting arms on a table/bench considered off hand?

Fine question good sir.

by B.B. Pelletier This posting was requested by frogman, who says he has trouble with unsupported shooting positions like standing (offhand), sitting and prone. Today, I will address the offhand position. And, yes, frogman, there are plenty of secrets for all these shooting positions. Let's...

Standing or sitting should be OK but no arms on any tables I'd think....I'm still up @12:30....trying to print these.....I give up If any one else manages to print these let me know, I tried both phones and laptop and no dice.

Got er done gentleman! Ripped it off like a bandaid zero practice, wasted 3 'cold' shots and then shot this. Used my TX and surprised myself TBH....juuust kept it in the black! May try to best it with my Ghost but for now this is it. First 5 I shot on my knees and last 5 standing. Thought off both knees would be easier but....it's not!! You rely on stomach muscles too much it turns out and i shook too much after #5.

 

[Danman]

I would like to add...Any newcomers that want to compete, read the rules, hit print, shoot 10 and post em up! Do NOT use the file that @pan60 posted, it is to big a file to print. Just click the target picture, hit download and then print it full size.

I took a page out of @Danman ‘s playbook why limit yourself to just one Airgun

Let’s talk about scoring.



Pure Shot - A pure shot is a shot that hits the target completely inside a scoring ring. The value of that ring awards the shooter with those points.



Cut Shot- A cut shot is a shot that hits the target and crosses the line of a scoring ring. Even if only the smallest portion (1%) of the shot is touching the ring, it is a cut shot.



Cut shots count for the highest number ring they entered through.

I took a few min to shoot it with the recently tuned up Bullshark. My S200 and Revere are at work, and I'm at home with my kid that has the flu. Put him down for a nap and dashed outside to shoot this.

I have work to do. This was my first time shooting the Bullshark offhand.

Thing ya need to do is standardized the target size or call out what it is .

Like 1 ring is 6 inch ,7 ring ( black) is 2-1/2" . Ring width is 1/4" , 10 ring is ??.

Looking above the targets posted are not the same sizes. Ones near the whole page and ones not quite ..lol.

The place fl2 2 got them from don't tell a thing except the paper size (a4) it should be printed on

What is A4 size? Read all about the A4 size here.

Maybe it's ok if your printer automatic scales or formats ...

Thank you HM. You are right about the print size they don’t look right, mine and @Danman are but not the same as @Florida_Man his target is definitely smaller.

I just posted the one that I could use from
@Joey 69 in post #1

Just show / state a " official" measure.. that easy to see and understand .. it's this or it's wrong kinda thing .. no guess work . Everything /one got a standard same size .


Then I guess if someone went to CRT diversity schools they can't read a tape or math anyway ..lol.
