[FL22]

I’ll do my best to get my HW95 “Scarface” out this weekend and complete the Challenge.

Hmmm, I still haven't printed and tried this. Would be good practice for my Air rifle championship. Except everything I'm shooting is 22...

@Scriv ... Im calling you out, your new .20cal needs a challenge, lol!
Wait....I have no excuse either my Hw50 is here and shooting great! I shudder to think how I'd do on irons though.

Maybe we should do that. Same target, HW50, Iron sights. 10yards.

Honestly 10Yards sounds about right. Shooting open sights again has been eye opener/humbling! The standard 5.5inch AV paper targets are almost perfect for using the ball on a post sight @ 20Y away on it. I always disliked how big the black area was but its perfect for this! Hold the front sight dead on and it covered it exactly.
These groups were @20Y holding dead on, 10+ shots each, on a front rest. Not bad honestly....if that was a small rat/sparrow almost every shot was a hit.

Absolutely! Iron sights are a challenge for old eyes, but so much fun. I'm loving the HW50S for sure.
