Doesn't say no scopes. So slap a red dot on and fire away. I already have my first card done with pistol/scope.

I don't have what would I need, must less a red dot and not in my current budget.
I need to check out a red dot I have never had one?
I have a pump gun with a scope but its a .22 and I think possible a .20 but none of the .17s
havent shot the .17s in years and honesly they are more around because of my hording LOL

Come on, bud. Just slap a red dot on any ole springer and fire away. If you do it right, the penalty points will offset your score for a perfect zero!

When I shoot these 10m type targets I only count a 10x if the center dot is obliterated, so no evidence it was ever there.

THIS IS A PERSONAL CHOICE and I don’t expect others to do the same.

Ross did a pm for clarification. February Challenge will be more difficult like you are describing.
