TargetScan wouldn't give me a 10 for the far left bottom. Never mind. 🖕😁. That one click up from last months attempt puts me in the mix for a ton though. I'll get it. I need to be quicker on my shots. I can see much more detail earlier on in the cycle.

Last time l looked you could buy NSRA 6yd targets (pistol) for £5/100 + £5p&p. Either shoot on those or print on the rear of them, the files are on page 1 of this thread. I’m sure 6yd rifle will be available from NSRA at a similar price.
 
Can you buy the 6yard pistol targets as my printed ones seem to tear and not punch nice holes
I’ve had the same experience as you. I started using a light card board backer like a cereal box or similar and that has helped some. The place where I had mine printed also has card stock. I think I’ll try that next time.

There was a bit of guess work at aiming both of these at the 6-yard target because the back sights reached their limits on both revolvers...🤷🏻‍♂️
Surprisingly the BB version with the longer smooth barrel did better than the 6" rifled whereas the reverse happened on the 10m comp cards. It may well be due to the"guess work".
 
Added a blinder and a rudimentary palm rest.

The bullseye in the lower left is a 9. The full white dot is still there.
The bullseye top center I think is a ten but not an X. The white dot is still partially there.
Corrections are most welcome.

**The AGF Friendly 6-Yard Pistol & Rifle Target Competition for April**

I would like to take this opportunity to invite you all to the:

AGF Friendly 6-Yard Combined Pistol & Rifle Target Competition!!

This month’s comp will once again be open to both rifles and pistols and shot over 6 yards, using the official NSRA 6 Yard targets. The targets are different for rifles and pistols so you will shoot the target relating to whatever you are shooting with. I will put a separate post underneath this one with details of the targets to use.

Each competitor is allowed 10 shots per card (giving a maximum theoretical score of 100), and each competitor is allowed to submit up to 4 cards in the month. Scoring is inward for both rifles and pistols. The competition will run to midnight on last day of the month.

As before, in terms of what guns to use - it’s entirely “Run wot you brung”. So, any rifle or pistol, open sights or optics, springer, PCP, SSP, CO2, one handed, two handed, off-hand, rested or whatever. All I ask is that you state in your entries the following:

Username
Pistol or rifle
Pistol / rifle type (including PCP, springer etc)
How you’ve shot it (Off-hand, rested, one or two handed etc)
Score

So as an example:
Jimbobs999
Rifle
HW35 - Springer
Off-hand
Score - 80

Don’t forget to include a photo of your target card and please show off your rifles and pistols too!

I will split the rifles and pistols into relevant classes when I publish the scores. I’ll aim to publish an update every weekend and then the final scores at the end of the month. If you want to enter both pistol and rifle classes you are most welcome - you are allowed 4 entries per month for each.

I think that’s it. Any questions, give me a shout. Let the target shooting commence - good luck everyone!
One year later 😂
