What Paper Target Did You Shoot Today

very nice , very very nice indeed !Hello everyone,
This is my first shot “warm-up” paper target for the day and I only shot three of the nine bulls. Often times I will shoot up to three warm-up targets to get the gun and scope dialed in and myself comfortable shooting. I shot 5 times at bull #1 and #2 and 10 times at bull #3 and never tore or touched the 10-Ring. I decided that three “one-hole” were good enough to go ahead and shoot some real targets. Sure wish I could start every day like this.
Range: 10-Meters Outdoors
Rifle: Air Venturi Avenger .22 caliber
Scope: Athlon Argos BTR Gen2 10-40x56
Pellets: JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr
FPS: 834
FPE: 28
Wind: 5-10 mph

Hello @beerthief
Thank you, what a pleasant surprise this morning. I hope to shoot a bunch of paper later on this afternoon after I get back from town.

What a waste of paper, I tell ya! Why not shoot all over the page like I do and get some use out of all those other lines and labels?Hello everyone,

I was getting my PP700SA back in service. I swapped in the 22 cal barrel and did some quick and dirty tuning. Luckily I docuemnted some of the exploits on this forum back in 2021, those helped me get close. I adjusted the pard as I shot, but the target was mostly just used as I recorded chrony numbers
Range: 10-Meters indoor
Rifle: Aetemis PP700SA Altros reg
Scope: Pard DS35 50mm
Pellets: FX 15.9gr
FPS: 667
FPE: 15.7

I needed to add light or switch to IR, it was a little dark in the garage to make them out haha.
I balanced the rifle on a front rest. it is always rewarding shooting this cheap little carbine.

Learning more about using a front rest that i just received.
It's not as simple as placing the rifle on it and shooting..i did think that..silly me
balance points and positioning of rear bags for recoil are new to me
The 1st shot was a cold shot..but not that bad for a cold shot..but i can't do that for a comp
it's going to be the little changes that will make a difference between a 10 and an X
shots were from indoor at 10m
rest is an AR 250 by Christopher Lionel. He's the son of Sebastian Lionel or SEB rests used in F class

Been shooting at trees. Trees are a form of paper. Pre-paper. Paper to be. Paper in waiting. Paper eggs. Embryonic paper.

Lovely card! One of my favorite target sheets — been shooting that target myself, since Smallbore days many years ago. Which gun were you using?Learning more about using a front rest that i just received.

I shot a BR50 paper as BR55 M yesterday, but not enough X to share, and for sure not the 2 shots that somehow decided to hit in the black ring.
But there is more papers where that came from, and i am still game.
