I take it I just got lucky scoring this one though I'm sure they are all dead now.

I actually shoot from 17 ft away which is about less than 1/2 a meter further back then the 5 m. so here it is...I'll be first.

Score 28/100 with my 2240 pistol...picture explains the rest.

this one was tricky- i think i did better on my practice shoots! hit 2 eyes on that on, then i got all "strategic", and missed. oh well- here it is - 13/100, my usual one handed, open sights, daisy 747, crossman comp wadcutters- 7 minutes.

See you all next week - we just got back from a camping trip with 27 other families from church. Managed some shooting at the edge of the campground. The real marksmanship event was at night around the campfire - the air was thick with marshmallows from PVC blowguns.
