Others “HAM Community Target Challenge” 20, 40, 80y

[pan60]

I start the survey I am unable to shoot indoor. the wife put her foot down and said not.
but if push come to shove I could maybe get 16 or 18 feet but realistically not even a option.
but I can shoot what ever distance outside.

Let’s take a survey, if you had to or only can shoot indoors, what is the maximum distance you have available to you?

My max distance is 7 yards. So to increase difficulty and make shooting interesting I go for tiny little bullseyes or tiny groups. I suggest keeping it simple. A target for 7 yards or under with tiny bullseyes, another target for 8-15 yards with larger bullseyes, another target for 16-25 yards with largest bullseyes. Keep the "X" circle/spot at the MOA for that distance (7, 15, 25 yds). 10 ring can be whatever you want, but goal here is to hit the X location as many times as possible. Perhaps numerical scoring, but number of Xs would be my goal. Now, number of bulls on each target gets complicated because targets get larger as distance increases. Maybe someone else can sort that out?

If I get my slavia back on track I could do some 10Y indoor.... If greenhouse permission up to 50!? But I would still try to get outside if it's above zero! Good for either myself.

Very good ideas. Might take a little while to get the targets ironed out, which would be good.

25 feet for me indoors.

 

[Smok3y]

No indoors, but I can make most anything work outdoors.

 

[Hateful McNasty]

You can only do with what you have to work with ... One time I straighten up the shop barn and had nice 36' then the piling up started back ( that out with the old and in with the new junk ) I maybe now squeeze in 20' worth... Maybe ..

 

[rsfrid]

21 feet = 7 yards

 

[Hateful McNasty]

Heck I can barely shoot 10m on irons more of less 7 yards (r9,10m,stock irons , cphp.177 )

I kept dropping my hold it seems

 

[Gramps-Too]

I believe my indoor range is 19’ which is about my max.

 

[BenjeneerJohn]

I am good to 50yrds indoors.

I like the idea of indoor shooting. We can make it hard and have a really small bull and only use open sights or off hand shooting.

although indoors is out for me I can do what ever the distance is so open sights and off hand would be cool maybe.
I can have an excuse to use one of my Benjamin pump guns ; ) and they are always fun to soot.
but?
can everyone shoot open sights? I know we can't always include everyone but maybe get the majority?
juts questions for the massssss

I’m in .

 

[pan60]

I’m in .

LOL its your game you set the guide lines ; )

 

[Hateful McNasty]

You already had this in that 20y standing free hand . Just go sights as I did and posted . Same bulls I just shot above for that 10m post works fine

 

[Hateful McNasty]

10m +/- indoor/outdoor freehand standing irons ( stock irons ..no optics no peeps)

Standard 1-1/2 bull with 3/8 dot

 

[Hateful McNasty]

Anyway .. I yanked the gamo out of the shed and did this 10m , standing freehand , irons cphp .22 5 shots .

The whamo gamo


Just can't go left cause I'm always right

 

[rsfrid]

I'm out if open sites. My 81 year old eyes won't do well with open sites and all my pistols are scoped.

 

[Hateful McNasty]

Man .. trying to get it centered Ed up better but ol' gamo don't have very positive clicking action.. more or less crank the knob and see what you end d up with .. lol

Last of the day same target as above


About as good as it gets in clicking it in but we'll see how it sits tomorrow on a big point change overnight .

We can do different requirements for different challenges still in an indoor close range. I’m thinking at least two Jan and Feb.

One scope and the other open sight, this way we can figure out what target is best suited for each.
