Shot a couple of tgts in the garage.  ONe was pretty non cooperative for scoring.  Even with the R10 wc pellets, the paper just tears incoherently........don't tell me much.  I even tried backing with hvy NRA tgt stock, still no joy.

Did have an 89 I feel confident with, Izzy 46M, 23' reduced tgt, RWS R10, irons, one handed.

Tried a 50' smallbore bull tonight and boy, talk about tight rings.  Only scored 72 with that one, everything the same.

Picked up some 10m tgts today at the gun show but weren't on the hvy stock.  Will give them a try when I can get the 33' measured off in the yard or wait till the better half is gone and shoot down the hall into the kitchen.

Been busier than the dickens like most everyone else I guess.  No indoor range time the next two Thursdays cause of how they land on the Eves.

All my targets are printed on regular printing paper. I pin a sheet onto a cardboard and the holes come out pretty good when shot with wadcutters. Sometimes when I'm lazy and don't change the cardboard.....I'll get tears or "bad" holes. With domes, hollowpoints or pointed pellets...the holes close back up after the shot.
