How To Score TMA Targets
Maven:
Here's my May, 2020 smoothbore PM target. As I'm not sure of how to score it (no numerical values for the rings on TMA- XX-1B), I attach a photo of it.
Ohio Joe:
Hello Maven, good to hear from you :shake
I believe I'm seeing; 10x 9 9 6 = 34-1x
I'll posted your score. :bl th up
Maven:
Thanks Joe! :bl th up Btw, that low first shot may have been due to a slight hangfire, or as I'm now coming to realize, a too clean ( LOL!) barrel. To wit, if I don't damp swab the bbl. after say 5 shots, I'm likely to get hangfires. The trick, I suppose, is to take a fouling shot, and then fire 5 for record. Btw, before I shot [at] that target, I tried 5 shots from a rest + rear bag: The resulting group was impressive, but ~4" too low. ;banghead;

Those smooth-bores can be finicky, but even with that flyer, I couldn't even come close to your target on my best day. Nice shooting Maven! :bl th up

Thanks, Joe! :yessir:
