...here please. Some very excellent target shooting last week...let`s improve on that.

SHOOT OFTEN SHOOT SAFE

[crowpopper]

here is my P1 at 10 meters using Copperhead byper velocity wadcutters off hand with open sights
i think i scored correctly with 97 points

Crowpopper that`s excellent shooting....almost a perfect score!!!!

Velly, velly nice...............I'm having a hard time finding the third "9".  You sure it wasn't a 98?  I even tried gluing hvy tgt paper cut from BE targets and still get tears most of the time.  I thought, after measuring the thickness of the Edelman tgts at .015, I'd be better able to score mine when I got lucky and clumped some shots near ea other............didn't help that much, some, but not nearly as much as I thought .020" thickness would.

What I did find out when I tried some Edelman 10m rifle tgts with the 46M, was that they did cut better but rifle velocity made all the diff in the world.  I kinda wish the 46 was 575+ capable.  I read where someone was working to soup up a 46M by enlargenning the reservoir but it wasn't a large increase in velocity.

Again, nice group.  You ever shoot BE?  Do you use the same handle on RFC?

[crowpopper]

i am crowpopper all over lol
havent seen another yet
i dont shoot BR i think i am on RFC at one time or another
but if ii was its been some time now
ther tears are a pain but i am going to try the 3m spray glue and glue it to a cardboard box and try it out
the P1 is shooting avg of 596 fps and the LD in .22 is avg 545
so i think it will cut clean holes then

You are already using a wadcutter, so you have already covered the pellet type selection.
I use a piece of cardboard behind my targets, so the pellets cut a cleaner hole.  And either move the target around the cardboard or replace the cardboard when the cardboard gets shot out.

You need to be able to score EACH shot.
As good as you are shooting, I would recommend that you shoot 2 target with 5 shots per target(5+5).  
And if you still can't sore the shots, go down to 3 targets (3+3+4)
And if you STILL can't sore the shots, go down to 5 targets (2+2+2+2+2)
In one match I shot 1 shot per target.  This was a regulation match, and done so that there was no question of the score of the shot by the scorers.

Shooting early and posting early this week....going to be out of town during the Easter period.

This target sheet is alot better than the Open Pistol 5M sheet....the shots are closer because there's only one bull. With five bulls on a sheet I tend to drift.....

I totally yanked the pistol on the 2 in the white. I always seem to pull one of the last couple shoots but I did it twice this time and early in the count.  Gotta focus...

Other than than I'm really happy with the group... :-)

Still in the cellar as far as scores now for the last several weeks.  Shot this one and another one, same score last Thurs at the range.

One handed, irons, H&N match, 46M, still working on whittling the grips.............hmmmm, wonder if I've hit a configuration that is counter productive to decent scores?  Hard telling, but then my rimfire scores have mirrored the 10m scores for the most part.  I did hit the sunny side of 90 twice last Thurs with the 41 at 75'.  So maybe pulling my head out of my nether parts and can look fwd to better scores.

No shooting this w/e as we went to Columbia to see Son and DIL.

Where you at Magnum?  Martin?  We need folks like you posting.
