Rene found out the hard way- this target is a "bit tricky" with only the white lines in the circles being good for points. I'm hoping to get some time this week to make a proper shooting effort myself- the last couple of competitions were me just grabbing a gun, running outside and shooting- but I don't think this target will leave any room to be careless or 'quick'!

Yes This target looks very easy to shoot at.
But scoreing points in the white section was a different story. Crying or Very sad

Steyr LP1, one handed, iron sights, 5 meters, 8 minutes, 75/150. It is a tough target, small scoring area, large non-scoring area. Definitely challenging.

How big are these balls supposed to be? ;-)

I printed out this week's target on both of the two printers to which I have access, and both times the cross hair balls came out about 3 inches across, with only one complete ball printing in the upper center of the page, and about 3/4 of another one printing in the lower right corner. Surprised

Here I just resized it for a 8 1/2" x 11" paper.
Then I had to re-enlarge it with a photocopier to fit properly on a 8 1/2" x 11"paper.
OR you can shoot your PC screen if you like. Laughing

If you're printing from a typical Microsoft piece of software- the print manager should pop up and allow you to "fit to page" for printing- but you may have to dig around a bit to find it.

Hi everyone, kind of new here, this is my first time on this forum competing.

I shot two targets, one with my IZZY 46m and one with my Avanti 753.

IZZY 46m:
Open sights
One hand
9 mins.
Meisterkeugeln pellets
Score - 30/150


Avanti 753:
Open sights
8 mins.
Meisterkeugeln pellets
Score - 55/150


** Very fun, I'm not too good, but I love to shoot! Sorry if pics are a bit blurry, I took them in a pinch with my cellphone camera.

Thanks for a great competition...!

Hey, you're asking me to figure out anything on a computer? I print process worse than I shoot! Mr. Green

I'll just shoot this week's target for practice.

Welcome aboard, John! I see you're a "one hand, open sight" man, like me! Wink

Alstone, that is a beautiful gun! Smile Is it CO2, or does cocking the underlever work a piston, or pump? Question
