173/200-1x

First time shooting after a LONG time away from the trigger. 
Man do I need practice.  Some pairs were nice, others not so good.  7 shots outside the black.
The cheap Daisy pellets shot better than I could hold.
The trigger mod made the Daisy trigger much better.
I changed my trigger hand hold to use the one that Kailua uses (hand lower on the pistol grip) and that worked better.

And go figure.  On the last shot, I pinched my finger when the cocking handle slipped out of my hand slamming down on my finger. OUCH!!!!

Now to go shoot my AP.

Great job pduck!!!

Your scoring looks pretty good, I do think you should have claimed an X on the lower left bull.
Remember that if a shot is touching the dot and not the 10 ring it is to be counted as a 10 and an X.
Since you are shooting a .177, if it touches the dot it is impossible for the hole to reach the 10 ring.
(it is possible to touch both with a .22 cal. though, must take out 1/3 or more of the dot to get an X)

In most circles, this would probably have not changed the outcome of the match since ac12's single X
took out the entire dot. (closer to center shot)

Just wanted you to be aware of it.

Again, great shooting, I look forward to seeing more scores posted by you in the future.
Keep having fun with it.
