September Postal Targets and August Scores

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 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.

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

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.

From the man himself: "Shooters may use any position they wish, off-hand, sitting, kneeling. squatting, sitting or standing.
IF A REST IS USED IT MUST BE NON-ADJUSTABLE TYPE THAT WOULD BE COMMON IN THE 1850’s OR EARLIER. (Home-made would be best!)"

I would say that resting on the bench is no problem.  Even if it is considered a rest (which I doubt) it is probably not adjustable!

Kees is correct. I scored Paul's target as 15. nice shooting, Paul!!
