Here is a fun Airgun Challenge that only requires 5 shots. I recommend 10yds for BB guns, springers, pistols and pump guns and 25yds for PCP air rifles. Or whatever range that you like. When you score your target with your phone camera it will allow you to download an image of your scored target and upload/post it here. You can also post it on your social media and share the fun. Download the target
Five if the largest North American Game animals: Whitetail deer, Elk, Bear , Moose and Boar. You get penalized for every miss.
 
I did it at 10 meters with the Vapor Max. Maybe I should have done it off-hand or bucket and stick, but it was good quick fun. Just too bad the wasps prevented my video plans.
It was too easy for a PCP like the Gen 3 PCP on a Bipod at 50yds. That’s not a flex, the way you’re doing it is a lot more of a challenge. As long as it’s fun. I know I enjoyed it. I’ll make some with more targets on them.
 
I’m going to need some feedback on how hard to make these targets. For the presets at least. Suggested ranges and types of airguns. Smaller kill zones maybe. Of course once I figure out who can create their own challenges, creators will be able to decide all of that for their own challenges. I’m thinking some prairdog, pesting, small game type preloaded challenges.

If I get a chance tomorrow I will try the new Avenger. I will let you know. I think I will try it at 40, but a lot of the guy i shoot with can only got 30-35 in their backyards if that helps.

I say 20-30 yards for a challenge (You can alway shoot further) would be really good for most guys,

So 25 yards is typically what the challenges are for pcp/springer, sometimes 50. 5-7 yards is typical for bb gun/pistol, and most forget about or ignore the pumpers. 😔 But 10-15 yards is not a bad range for a pump gun for most users. I am the exception in that I like to toe the line with the pcp and springer shooters.

With those ranges in mind, KZ/target size usually varies from dime to quarter size, depending on the challenge.

I started to create my own challenge, because it looked like finally the easiest layout to do so. But... I may reach out to you. What I need is a mix of two of your modes to make my vision (or to do some of my own outside work and then challenge target mode for completion). Probably fairly niche, but potential for labels on targets also (again more for long time vision I haven't yet done).

Honestly, I thought it was too easy for a rested pump gun at 10 meters (vice stated 10 yards for challenge). It was definitely fun, and was perfect for a quick shoot. My spread was only due to shifting around my holdover trying to dial in where I needed to (I think it was sighted for 5 pumps at 25 yards). I think as is it is a good challenge for off-hand, maybe bucket and sticks.
