Benchrest Online Benchrest Competition Rules

That makes no sense that the shooter is not penalized for multiple shots within a single target?
Hopefully that explains my questioning. From my perspective I didn’t know if it was something subject to interpretation (maybe making of your own rules type of scenario as long as all participants agreed).

The rules vary by the governing body or host. None of the 100yd airgun benchrest competitions penalize you. They give you the highest score and nothing for the missed target. The .22 BR are all different. ELEY has chosen to give you a score for one of the hits and a 0 for the missed target. It highlights that the target may need Human intervention.

So that was a situation with one of the targets I didn’t actually miss one. It was a flyer from a sighter above the already completed target so I continued to complete the entire set of 25.

I had assumed there would be some sort of penalty regardless, but instead it gave me the highest available score.


Question(s):
So if we are?? following N50 rules, I should’ve manually changed the score to the lowest score & -1 point? or should I skip a target intentionally to give myself a zero? as the app will not allow you to change a low certainty score to a zero as I have found out.

I’m not sure. Is your target uploaded into one of the practice events?
 
I’m wondering if the referee can set it to zero. Personally I’m in favor of keeping it as simple as possible. I can almost guarantee that ELEY isn’t thinking N50 with their rules. N50 has less than 100 airgun shooters and under 300 when considering all of their classes.

Bill, At the recent 100BR at PAC they subtracted 10 points for every hole that exceeded the 25 scoring bulls.

  • Any shots over 25 in the target area will be a -10 penalty per additional shot on the total score.

Yes, I understand that, I was referring to hitting an adjacent target box, while missing the aimed at target box ( still maintaining a 25 shot total). But, from what I can see WRAF etc., just score the lower hit and add the -1 penalty for extra shots.

Generally on double shots on one Bull it is scored the lower of the Two shots!
Hello Joe, At the Pyramyd Air cup and RMAC they score the best of the two. I have seen it both ways.
I don't think it matters as you will loose 10 points if you shoot 26 holes in target or you leave a target un-shot and get a zero.

I just read all the post I missed and see that this has been discussed already. I have attached my double shot score. It scored it as a 10!

That’s interesting. I shot a target specifically for making some tutorials. I used a black marker to write my hand score on each box. I did this prior to scoring with the app.. That was a mistake. One box had a single strike that was being scored wrong. I figure out that it was being confused by the black marker. It was seeing two black areas and picking a score on between them. I figured that out by whiting out the marker. It looks like that is what it’s doing here.
