    1/4" 10 dot challenge.


    This challenge is shot at 100 yds with the target being an 8x11 sheet of paper with 10 1" circles each with a 1/4" dot as the actual target. Score is first digit number of hits from starting dot and the second digit is the overall hits on 1/4" dots. Tried this morning. Shot a 3-5 with my Savage 110 in .308 using 175 gn smk over 43.4 gn of TAC. 10th shot was a maggie's drawers. Hit the trigger while getting into position and sent the rnd down range missing the paper completely. Can't cure stupid. Whatta Hobby!

    We have shot this one now 2 years in out local league. Start at head, shoot to tail. Can't move to the next one until the previous one was hit. 20 dots, 20 shots.

    Speaking of that, I saw a you tube video where they are doing extreme .22LR at 300 yards shooting soda cans.

    My two cents, I still like my rifle golf. With golf balls around 1.5 inches it take a little effort to hit one with three shots at 150-200 yards. Only problem is, its limited to when the crops are out around here.

    That was last years target, first year we shot it. This year I hit 18 of 20. Of 21 members there were only 2 that cleaned this target!

    I enjoy printing my 10 dot targets and adding the 1/4" pasters. Aim small hit small. Whatta Hobby!

    Why not print the 'paster' as well?

    I like the shiny paster as an aimpoint. Tried printing but my eyes prefer these.
