AUGUST POSTAL TARGETS

This Month's Fun Shoot Target is Called "Broken Lines Matter". Scoring is on the bottom line of the target. a little advice, use a .4o Cal or bigger. [

So do we just shoot at the bottom line and ignore all the others?

[Nessmuk]

LOL!  No, one shot at each line. You'll have to be exact with your .36 cal pistol, Paul !!!

[Bigsmoke]

That is a diabolical target!.  I used to be pretty good with vertical bars, but the horizontal ones?  Not so much.

What is the distance to shoot from?  I would think 5 feet would be reasonable.

I think this calls for a big caliber and hope to it one

Shot the easy standard target to build up some confidence before the diabolical broken lines.

Went to see the target printer this morning. Spent some time looking at this fun target afterward to prepare myself. I was thinking meditation was the best way. But have changed my mind. I now think hypnosis might be the solution. Or borrow one of those big bores that Bigsmoke uses.

100* temps here for a bit, gonna try one of these mornings .
 Probably shoot my best with 5 balls all at once

Brilliant thinking Kevin. Will you have someone else there to help you pick yourself off the ground after firing the shot?

[Bigsmoke]

Well, 5 .530 balls would only weigh about 1,150 grains.
And you would need at least 200 grains of powder to get them moving well and into a good pattern.
That shouldn't recoil all that badly.   OR NOT !!!

Warning:  this load is for amusement purposes only.  Do not try this at home or with any witnesses.

I shot with my Fusil De Chasse smoothbore this morning. 25yds, standing offhand, loading from the pouch. [ Invalid Attachment ]  [ Invalid Attachment ]

[Nessmuk]

If I had a .62 like Paul I might have scored higher!  Diabolical, no! Challenging as hell, Yes!
