That's the only way snakes should be.

Tom, The Fun target is definitely 25. Your standard target looks almost like a 50 3x but I can't be sure because the picture isn't head-on. Good shooting!!!
I'm  not  H/C or P/C or even a particularly  good shot but I have a hell of a good time!

Dedicated to the TMA.

I figured the angle of the picture would prevent you from doing your thing. Thanks for your help buddy.

Here is my attempt.  Looking at the other targets posted, I think I'm in the cellar again!

Well buddy, here's the way it is. I don't care which room in the house you are in.  I just want you in the house shooting with the rest of us.   :bl th up

Hey Kevin, it looks to me like you clipped the snake's chinny-chin-chin!  If not, you helped him with shaving.....   :bigsmile:

Shot my snake today. Used my .33 cal percussion pistol. 25 yds, elbows rested on bench, gun supported with a 2 hand hold. Not offhand so not sure if that position counts? Looks like a score of 10 with a couple close ones. [ Invalid Attachment ]

I believe that's some impressive pistol shooting. Good shooting Paul.

Thanks, but my elbows were rested with 2 handed grip. I was going to go for the mid body shot and hope to hit it but changed my mind and went for the head shots instead. Challenging target to shoot at.

Irregardless, that's good shooting. And I'd say your pistol likes that load too. If you ever use a rifle, you'll probably put 5 shots in 1 hole. You're right about it being challenging. Mark keeps coming up with dandy targets.
