Absolutely love my M1A, and I think it was a gold or silver winner for HAM. Thanks for this challenge so it could show this dummy he's more accurate with it than previously credited.

Springfield Armory M1A Air Rifle Test Review .177 Caliber
The Springfield Armory M1A air rifle is a well-priced "lookalike" version of the classic centerfire rifle. Just a box magazine is missing.

Finally got to this challenge, tons of fun! I realized if I angled myself and the target I can shoot inside my shop
(32ft long)
Hw50 did good, however......the freshly tuned TX200 edged it out and remains king!
I used a .177 pellet to score it.

Awesome job! I need to do a few more rounds of this. I have gotten close a few times, definitely have to be indoors right now.Finally got to this challenge, tons of fun! I realized if I angled myself and the target I can shoot inside my shop

Yeah we've been averaging between -5 to -10C for the past few weeks during the day
I printed some extra sheets, just incase, 10Y isn't my thing but it beats nothing!
Hoping to bug the inlaws, and get back inside the greenhouse next weekend to test the Ghost and the TX.
Used this target today to check out my new to me Crosman 130. Raining and breezy, and first 10 shots were for group rather than score at about 6-6.5 yards. But... then I took 3 shots using Kentucky yards and winds trying to get the 5. Was a lot of fun at least, but my "score" for the 10 shot group would be 10. 
Shot with another pumper, Crosman Vapor Max at 10 meters, about 12mph winds and 80°F, 3 pumps/shot using CPHP 7.9gr pellets. I have not adjusted the sights since taking the gun out of the box, I used lollipop aiming at center bull. Also, this was pre-first cleaning and i still have tested nothing in the gun to see what it likes best yet.
The gun is long, and where I want my front hand to sit naturally is too far out to support with my frame for good off-hand support. I pulled a couple of shots and wavered some trying to get my hold right, but I am satisfied with a 33. I broke the line on one, so could have theoretically rounded it up but chose not to.

Well, I can't say that the peep helped all that much, but a sight correction would've made a difference.
And done, sights unadjusted just rough zero verification. Gun has not yet been pellet tested for favorite food.

Well, adjustment made. Helped some. Follow through likely the culprit. Tough to hold all the way to the target for a geezer. This is with the peep sight. Have fun shooters.
Solid shooting, only one out of the pink.

Nice round group. You're seeing the sights.
Very important! I am completely the reverse. I have always been a terrible pistol shot. But I am a passable plinker with a scoped air rifle
