First post but here goes, Ataman AP16 shooting CPHP at 25yds with a cheap Umarex scope that I've been wanting to change out but it works for now. Gun shoots a little better on JSB 18.1 but is more accurate than I am.

Well done everyone! That little soda pop tab is small huh?!
My intent wasn't to pick the winner solely on precision, but it just happens that AGN member 5n24 did make it through all 3 holes with the least amount of damage. What I really enjoyed was his use of entry level equipment and creativity making his own AGN target template. Just shows that you don't need a printer (or a $3000 kit) to have fun and get 'er done!
Hope you enjoyed the challenge!
BTW - July's Monthly Challenge will be a Picture Challenge ONLY
Have a great holiday everyone

OK, I wimped out, used a .177. I don't think any of the three would be clean with a .22.
This was definitely challenging, also a lot of fun.

This challenge is from 2 years ago but looks fun and is probably deceptively hard.
I’ll try to find some dark paper or cardboard to use as the background. Soda poptops against white paper don’t have much contrqst.
Or...mark the tabs with black Snarpie to get the contrast.

Even though this challenge is over two years old now, it still seemed like a fun one to do, so I tried it today. Here is a link to the video:
For my version of the challenge, I decided to try to squeeze a 22cal pellet through the dinky little tab that holds the tab to the can itself. You can watch the video, but I clearly did it on two of the three. The middle one was blown off the box, and I have spent way more time than I should have looking for that tab with no success. Here is a picture:
Update:
I found the missing tab INSIDE the box! Here is a picture of the back of all three:
So, the little ring on the center tab wasn't broken, so I technically missed that one.

I agree. I also didn't want the pellet to destroy the paper and obscure the shot. Taping it to plain brown cardboard worked great!
Well, I am glad that you disregarded the year. This is a fun, and challenging, challenge. I didn't know that I wanted to do it until I saw your entry. Thanks for searching in the archives @Fire012 !
