Other score is at least a 370

And here’s why I say “at least”, and why I asked one of the questions earlier about hitting the line vs breaking into the color.

The shot in the 13 breaks the “line” around the red, but the line isn’t really there because of the black slice. If 13 had been a white slice, it would’ve definitely been a 39 instead based on my initial thoughts and what two of you replied to my earlier questions.

Doesn’t matter in the big scheme of things since changing that one shot wouldn’t put it higher than my other target. But curious to your thoughts in case anybody else runs into the same issue.

This is one I’d shoot again even if I don’t get to it before the month is up.

Nice shooting!!
I agree with your thinking on breaking the line. I agree that it is still technically a line there, and you broke it.

Yours were sort of like mine. I had a target where I tried for all triples and I didn’t do as well as when I tried to take some safer shots at the doubles, so as not to screw up my triples.
 
New to quality rimfires and higher quality ammo. So I was very pleasantly surprised with this target today.

CZ 457 ProVarmint .22LR
Primary Arms 4-14 scope
Front and rear bags
RWS Target Rifle ammo

I originally scored it with a triple 13 but I don't think it broke in enough, also no 20, no 5, no 1. My only questionable score is the 18, there's only one shot in the 18 but it's a shot that is also in no score of the 1 which would bring my score down to 459/705

477/705

Nice shooting Dave. Looks like 477 is good. The 18 is good, because it has one hit in it.

Awesome to have you on board shooting with us. Hope you had fun!
 
Welcome to the Challenge Dave! Nice shooting, hope you enjoyed shooting and come back to shoot with us again.
 
Going into the last weekend to post a score. We need to get some targets up and see if anyone has what it takes to beat Smok3y or he will be the winner again! 581 is high score so far.
 
With no more targets being submitted it looks like Smok3y was our big winner again! Congratulations Smok3y!! You can choose a target for our October/November Challenge and we will see if anyone has what it takes tobeat our current champion!
 
I found the one I want to use a couple nights ago on a printable targets site, but the picture is a little blurry when printed.
I’ll work on trying to recreate it tonight to make it easier to see.
