Got a new target for Sept? If I might suggest something perhaps 1 or 2 bulls per page for iron sights. Not sure about everyone else but I had a really hard time aiming because of the other bulls in the sight picture. I would personally like 1 bull per page. Your doing a great job though thanks for hosting the contest. I was hoping to shoot another target today but just shot some groups with the new brno #4. I had a 3 shot string under 3/4 " at 100 yards but blew it on the 4th and 5th shot :mad: . Can't wait for the next one...keep em comin.

Cheers
 
Yah I will maybe just do two bulls per page next time. Like you said it was really hard with all the other bulls on the page. I will come up with another design for september.

I shot a 3 shot group with my valmet just under .15 today but like you I messed up on the 4th and 5th shot and opened it up to about .9, which still aint bad but not as good as .15 ;)
 
This is a lot harder to do than it looks. The targets could be a bit bigger for 50 yards, hard to get a good 6 oclock hold.
I would say I am a good shot off the bench - poor offhand, but this was humbling. Lots of fun, I'll be doing more.
Really tough to do 50 consistant shots. I learned that when conditions change, take a sighter. My one bad flyer is from the sun off the front sight after cloudy conditions.
