I really liked the looks of this target. This is what keeps me coming back.
So, other than reminding me of high school biology, I wondered what
kind of sight picture I was going to see from position.

So, the anti-oatring target posted, and sure enough, yellow on white?
Thanks!!
Some of the "blobs"(?) were just mere shadows through the sight,
but held hard and shot at it anyways... I guess the adage, focus on
the front sight really works, cause I sure couldn't see what I was shooting at!
As far as easier? Well, I shot all the small ones first, then shot the bigger ones. Almost relaxed too much!

All in all, the blind squirrel finds another nut....
