This is a non-standard target, I hope it will be acceptable. It is a page cut out of a phone book, and is the size of a sheet of copy paper. The 4 MOA ring was drawn in ink around the base of a tin can, the dot is not perfectly centered and was for aiming reference. If this target is not acceptable for an official submission, I fully understand and am OK with that. If any further pics/different views/ etc are wanted, let me know.
Here goes:
Range-103 Yards (Google Earth)
Wind- Light but variable, sometimes none.
Gun- Diana 350 N-Tec Magnum in .22
Pellets- H&N Barracuda Match 21 gr
Group-4.9" CTC
Shot sitting, gun rested on sticks.
Witnesses- Myself, and a groundhog who ran in front of the target as I started to aim for my third shot...... :o
Here's the pics:

Just because-
I would like to clarify that I have no especial dislike for international calling, and happily punch holes in the domestic and contiguous United States pages as well... ;)

You clearly have the 4 moa ring marked and an aiming dot so the target gets you in as a Member. I added you to the list. Congratulations and welcome to the Club.

;D Thanks! I felt really in-tune yesterday; was able to consistently feel that perfect "Zen" moment right before each shot 8). I shot 5 other targets before I got that group; most still had decent patterns, but the scope needed a little tweaking to get on-target. Anyways, it sure was cool to walk up from so far away that you can't see the pellet holes with 9x scope zoom and find a group that you could cover with 1 hand :D :D.

Not to mention it has been/is quite chilly out. That always plays into things. Well done.
(note to others: we are about 1/2 hr. apart on the map), so I know what the weather/temp. has been like)
