Richard Aucoin "Amb5500C"
Gun= RWS Diana 48/22cal.
Scope= CP 4-16x44
Ammo= JSB 18.1 domed
Temp= 65*
Wind=mild
Score=178 & 2 or 3X (hard to tell for sure on these targets)

I really dont like this target. I also would like to have one that's easier to score.

GreginKy, thanks for the target sheet you made.  We've a very similar one used in the Bench Rested Rifle (Non-PCP) match.  Maybe later on next year....if more shooters agree....we can use that target sheet.

Btw....your target is showing up larger....so I can see the stats.

G2H....Thanks for getting this match on the main list.....(insert hi-5 slap here)

My vote keep this target as is.
This match at 50' is a good distance to help encourage those of
us who prefer open sights.
There are plenty of other matches with bulls like Greg suggests.
But they are impossible to shoot open sights, if your eyes are over 45.

Perhaps a mostly white bull with same size and rings, would make
scoring easier for scope shooters.   Like we have on the Gamo 5
target for the red dot users.

I am not suggesting that scopes be banned from this match,  just trying
to keep this match using targets that are open sight friendly.


Here's my effort;

Walther LGR-U,
Stock Match peep (no attachments or lenses), stock front globe w/ring insert.
.177 Miesterkuglen 7.0gr wadcutters
50' outdoor, 40deg
Sitting on Bucket, palm rested on camera tripod.
close ones scored with Eagle Eye scorer
Score 170/200

Thanks for the kind comments fellows.  Yes....those two starlings would go nicely with the ones still in the freezer.  Ha ha....yes I/we eat them....well at least boil them into broth.

I'll PM Addictedtoair (New Target Shooting moderator) in the new year to see what he thinks of having two target sheets in one match....I've never thought of going that route....maybe it'll work out great.

i like shooting 50'. good practice and it's about the max practical range i can get in the basement. about 56'-57' corner to corner. but,  i don't like that target either. it's hard to score.  and feel free to rescore my target, that was my best guess.
