I see the deal. You guys are conspiring with my wife to get new ink cartridges for my stupid printer and get it back attached to the network.
So the deal is print out the picture of the bottles and then shoot holes in the labels? What size is the paper? My printer does 8.5"x11" or whatever the standard size paper is. Been years since I used it.

So after all the math of the March Target Challenge you are probably ready to have a beer or 3. The next morning you wake up to a sea of international beer bottles in your yard and a headache. You gather them all up and take them to the range (there is no deposit on these bottles). What better way to cure a headache than with the smell of burnt gunpowder and loud noises? Make sure to clean up the broken glass before leaving the range.

Yup standard paper, 3 pts for the bottle, 5 for the big label, and 10 for the neck label. It's a different target every month, and dsdmmat makes a new thread for it each month.
God forbid. Too busy cut and pasting political click bait shit.What? You mean a gun forum should have shooters out numbering BSers?
30 feetAt 2 yards right?
View attachment 12294 Here is a preview of the pistol target. The rifle target will be different than the pistol target for May.
Oh I am an evil bastard.......
Haha, I was thinking at least a grass mat size target at that distance off hand weak side. I like the broad side of a barn better.Ok then the target must be the broadside of a barn?
You can do it!Looks like I won't be bothering with the pistol division again. All I got is two 9MMs.
Nope, not one handed. I just don't have the trigger time on pistols to be very good yet. We will see if a couple sessions on the silhouette range helps.You can do it!
Give it a shot. Take your time and do it. If it sucks, don't post it.Nope, not one handed. I just don't have the trigger time on pistols to be very good yet. We will see if a couple sessions on the silhouette range helps.
You're right it is. Alright you have convinced me, and I'll even post the target too. I guarantee you I will not hit a single thing. I might not even get anything on paper!Give it a shot. Take your time and do it. If it sucks, don't post it.
The more you shoot, the better you get. Nobody wants to shoot weak hand, but its a valuable skill.
I try to shoot off had weak side every time I go to the range. Revolver or semi auto. Still need lots of practice. I''m in.Give it a shot. Take your time and do it. If it sucks, don't post it.

I think one of us is going to go to jail for accidentally shooting someone during this match.It has been about 10 years since I shot weak handed. So this should be fun.
It is like riding a bike or having sex right? You never forget how to do it.I think one of us is going to go to jail for accidentally shooting someone during this match.
I was thinking it was probably gonna be me.It is like riding a bike or having sex right? You never forget how to do it.
I used to have to shoot weak handed at least one stage every match in my competition days. So it shouldn't be that bad.
