Cheap 10m shooting solution.

[Sqwirl57]

I started shooting 10m but couldn't see my hits without actually walking over which gets annoying pretty quickly. I wanted to get a legitimate 10m scoring system but then I saw how much they cost and would rather buy 4 more springers for that kind of money so I went with the next best thing I could find.

It syncs right up to my phone and/or tablet and I can now spot myself while I shoot. With the camera setup directly in front of the target I can see the whole thing or just zoom in and watch the individual targets (the obvious solution). The best part is that it only $27 and insanely easy to setup.

(Please forgive my poor shooting here I have a pretty valid excuse for it. I'm not good lol. Now that I can see for sure where my shots are landing I hope to fix that though!)

Well since it's already linked to your phone you could probably use it with the target scann app. I think it was $20 and auto calculates the score on certain targets.

I like the way you think sir.

A spotting scope of at least 20X will work well.

Great idea where do I buy it and what model is it?
Thanks

I had concidered it but I dont know that my spotting scope will focus down to 10m plus having to actually look through the scope mid group and getting out of position seemed counterproductive. With this setup I can literally see the target out of the corner of my eye at all times. Its really, really convenient.

That may be a bit of a stretch without a WiFi extender but if it works that would definitely be awesome!

I did something like that for my 10M AP setup. For my output, I have an old monitor connected to a Roku receiver and I use their security camera viewer channel. Keeps everything over WiFi.
The best part is the 2 or so seconds delay which lets me track my hits easier when I'm shooting a good group.

Thats a really nice setup! Its funny you should mention the delay... I sent this message to some friends last night after about an hour of shooting

Lol... Now is that really cheap or getting more lazy..lol.

Walking is cheap ...as cheap as it gets.

Now with my beer and pok rib belly i need all the walking it off exercise i can get.

But heck why not if i had that handy in a junk box id try it to... Beats keeping it a unused dust collector when it could be applied to somthing..

Walking isn't helpful for training when you're trying to diagnose your shots as they happen.

Exactly this. I had a general idea of when I was pulling shots before but now I know when without a drop of doubt when good scores are luck or not. It has definitely been a big help

Hmmm, is that a fact... Left ,right ,high or low 1 click = 1/10mm at 10m aint that tough to figure is it? Or my hold should be as good just sitting rested or after i walk 10m 10 times and resume shooting as soon as i sit back down .. diagnose ... I hit well and spot on or i missed.. lol

P.S..
Not knocking the camera set up i do like it..

This is standing offhand shooting. Aint no bags in this game my man. The 10 ring is a 0.5mm dot. A visual helps a lot.

Dont matter dude same result..lol standing sitting or on your head.. a guys got to what he thinks.. thats all that matters. No hard feelings ..

It does matter. My scores started rising when I went to individual shot feedback, vs walking up every 5-10 shots, or even checking with a spotting scope.
It's not an accident that every 10M training range in the world uses real-time scoring. This isn't backyard pesting.
