6) 27 shots at the targets, 3 per duck maximum.

Mar,
This target looks rough!
I looked at your target and those are some great shots!
I think it is just really easy to miss a "5" by a hair and get 2's and 1's. At least that is the story of my life! 
Great shooting! It is a deceptively difficult target!  |

Hey john I felt pretty focus and steady but yeah I was pretty surprised myself at some of those groups. That 2240 seems to shoot better the more I shoot it, I'm very happy with that pistol.
Now I'm sure the rifle shoot will be a different story. |

Mar- I hate to be the one to point this out- but look at your target- the middle duck only scores 5 points (2 red, one yellow) and the first duck on the last line has a score of 4 points (1 red, 2 yellow)- making the total 63/135.  doh! |

Thanks Eric, I rechecked and you are correct about the bottom left one, it's not quite touching.so a 4 for that.
However the middle one is correct as you can see in this picture with a pellet in the hole. What do you think?

| The pellet picture is skewed- looking at the complete target you can see red between the pellet hole(s) and the black dot. One thing to remember is that the pellet skirt is slightly wider than the head- and anything but dead straight-on with the head centered completely in the hole is going to make things look different. Turn the pellet around and put the skirt in the hole and let it rest on a table or something else totally flat and see what it looks like. |

One more time, two pictures, one with the EZE-Scorer and one with the pellet facing up. What do you think now? LOL!

It can be hard to score these targets where the paper is not top quality.
I suprised myself on this target. I hit better than I thought, perhaps because the red was easy to see.
Steypr LP1, RWS pellets, 5 meters, one hand, 12 minutes, 90/135.

Thanks for the welcomes. 
Thx to Alstone for the tips on downloading targets - they're much bigger now.  I also measured my 'range' and was able to move closer by 2½ feet. 
But still out of the running - for practice 69 & 50. For score 59.
Crosman 2300T @ 5M, Crosman Premier Wadcutter 7.9gr, open sights, one-handed. |

The very first post in this thread. Click on the "Click to Enlarge"- load it, then right click on the picture, "Save As..." save it, then print it (make sure you click"fit to page" on the print menu). |

well you can also do that and you can also increase the percentage size to fit the size. That way it will fit better. |
