Come one, come all... Casual Match #8 of 2022/2023 is open for business.!!!
The Casual Match is a fun match. Shoot whatever you want at 10M (more or less depending on what you have available), use any position or rest that you prefer. See below for the details.
Rules are the same as for the 50’ Casual Match, except distance is 10M instead of 50’, using the 50’ target of choice. If you are limited to distance, shoot at whatever distance you have available. Classes are PCP Rifle (includes any rifle except spring or nitro pistons), Jumper (Piston Rifle, spring or gas), and Pistol. One entry may be made in each class.
The match #8 will run 2 weeks, through Sunday, 3/12/23.
The 50’ rules and targets may be found at:

It's a calm wind day on my day off. Which target would you suggest for someone who's never done this before? I'm using a red dot with a PCP if it matters. I will probably start out rested and eventually go to off hand. I'm sure this is a lot harder than it looks.

DJ... What caliber?
There are different targets for .177 and .22.
With a red dot I would suggest one with a black bull.
FYI this match #8 is closed so don't post your results here.
I have started #9 here... https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=206706.0 (https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=206706.0)
