We have been shooting a weekly league with mostly rimfires at half scale bowling pin sillhouettes made from scrap 2x4's, at 15 yds. Most of the shooters here are lucky to knock over all 5 with one magazine, lol....
We used to shoot regulation pins until we had some richochet problems and had to remove all hard targets and steel plates from the range. Being a director at the club, I talked them into shooting "soft " targets such as wood that would not richochet like real bowling pins. Because it is halloween, last sunday we had a "graveyard match". Instead of shooting bowling pin sillhouettes, I made some "tombstones" from 2x4's. They were 8" tall with a radiused top like an old tombstone. They were easier to hit (well, for most of us) and my best time was 4.54. Most of the times were in the 7-8 sec range.
Like I've told the guys....before you can knock them down fast, you have to knock them down, period.
