Hey! I'd love to take that score for the fun target in May, but I didn't shoot one! That was the score I had on the April fun target..

Good target Salty. But after seeing some of the scores for the May targets, I just don't know. Nessmuk said the Spacer Invader target was an easy one, but it wasn't too easy for me.

As much as I have always enjoyed these "postal" matches - and I shot the ones on many sites and doing very well - I had to stop a couple + of years ago.  Number of reasons: medical, no DL and a couple of others.  I had to stop all hunting going on 8 years ago so, for me, this represents a double whammy.

Besides, the spacecraft targets offend me due to the fact that some of my relatives travel back and forth using this technology, and I  don't shoot at relations :pray:

I truly wish you could shoot with us Hanshi. Participation is not monumental. I guess as long as I'm blessed with the ability to do it, I'll keep doing it. Because I know how quickly that ability is gone.

 Well I was hoping to try again before the end of the month with a different gun but too much to do.
 Tried this with my TC hawken and buck Horn sight.
 Think I'll go back to my kibler  :bigsmile:

To me, it doesn't look like anything is wrong with the rifle. Every shot looks to be low right. Could have been caused by the position of the sun, or the sights might need some adjusting. Looks like you were consistent. Or I'm all wet... :laffing

You're probably right. I'm sure using the buckhorn sight was an issue also no reference on it just an open sight.
 Anyways I'm going to concentrate on one gun for awhile which will be my flintlock.

Don't know if I can get this month's targets shot; I'll see what Monday brings, weather wise.

My Targets.  First Target was fine, no insects around. 2nd Target I was attacked by Hordes of deer flies. New York's AdirondackMtns are wet and cold again this year. I need to sell this place.

I hear north Idaho is beautiful this time of year  :bigsmile: hardly any insects, really!
I did enjoy my 30 ish years in the Adirondacks .
  I know what you mean about the flies.
 Buy some salve and keep shooting.

Mark, that is an impressive target (except for the outlier, of curse); I would be proud to post one like it!   :toast
