I just finished a st patty one, so sure! Springtime, so... something seedy? Probably should be bench or standing though. I don't know how many would want to lay or kneel in the springtime mud.

@FL22 A spring time challenge? Ok. Let’s shoot the tits off of a boar!!

 

[Billm]

For me bench/sitting is preferred.

Why 20, 40, 80 yards? Most ranges are 25, 50, 75, and 100.

Please see your post #73 and responses.

This thread is just where everyone hashes out what direction to take for each “Challenge” then I’ll post it separately and a link.

Right now, I’m hoping for a bench 25 yard just to get things started.

@FL22 …And shooting the tits off of a boar. Trust me, he won’t need them.

So what is this St Patties day challenge? Clover leaf your groups on purpose, and you lose points in it's just one hole?

 

[PapaT]

It was a pot of gold, with coins of various size. Shot at 25 yards. Max of 25 points, I spanned the 0-10 points range.

Thanks Dan. I’m waiting on a message, but I think I’ve come up with an interesting target idea. I guess we’ll find out.

 

[FL22]

I’ve been working for a while, trying to come up with a new type of target but things did not go as planned, so instead of just scrapping everything I tried to make it a little bit more fun.

The dots when I print them out are exactly .177
I will be working on a .22 version so that both are available for the spring challenge.

FYI this is my first attempt at designing a target, so feel free to make fun of .

so one dot one shot?
is there any margin as in 80% counts or is it total wipe out?
I am for center the pellet over the dot take it out get the point anything else is just not winning

Well what about having the same Challenge at the same time but with 3 levels of difficulty?

Beginner - touching the dot

Intermediate - 60% cover

Pro - 100% elimination of the dot

A shooter could also use that to qualify themselves after a few targets are practiced on.

 

[FL22]

.22 Target

 

[FL22]

.25 Target

 

[PapaT]

Yay! I think I can manage all of these as rookie of the year! And if it fails there, I'll just clean it up with the Texan.

Here we go!!
