That could bee an interesting target to shoot.
In the meantime, our local range is still closed, the next closest one is members only with an initial cost of $250 to join and the next closest one is not too excited about having muzzleloaders.  With fire danger like it is right now, I am not too excited about going out into the mountains hereabout, so I guess I will just forget about it for a while.

It's okay to color in the wasps if you wish. Like Kindergarten, just stay inside the lines :laffing

Alright 1st target of the month.
 Finally got a bunch of rain last night so that lowers my fire risk on the home range.
 Trying to re-load develope my TC hawken.
 took the buckhorn sight off and went back to the factory sight.
 Getting close to having it dialed in so I can shoot my targets.
 Stay tuned
Kevin

The Kibler and I are now understanding each other. That and perfect weather helped. Of course, now I just jinxed myself for next month.

 Well I guess I'm happy with this , still getting used to the ol TC.
 I knew I pulled that one center shot but wow. Way off
 I believe that target scores a 5.
 Shot the bullseye second round, seems  I settled in a little.

Certainly no apology needed. In my opinion,  everyone who participates or wants to but can't for lack of range and cost issues is a winner.  Irregardless of the scores. I really feel for those who would like to participate but can't.

It's supposed to cool down in a couple of days, I'll see if I can't get out to the range early next week. Those are some mighty fine targets there.  50 - 3X is going to be hard to match, much less beat!   :laffing

Well I shot the bullseye. Couldn?t catch Nessmuk though.
Haven?t tried to save the bees.
