Did you try the 'sighting in' like I proposed to you??  Brother Doug.

I don't do to well either, but just wondered if you could find an accurate hole in your cylinder.

Question: Does the pistol for the shoot have to be a single-shot pistol or are revolvers allowed too?

Use your revolver in the pistol match.

A revolver can usually be used as a pistol by loading only one chamber before going to the line. ( I have only been to one match that would not allow it and it wasn't here.)
I still don't have a pistol that can outshoot my Uberti revolver, but in the past. I have borrowed ones that can.

Russell, For the pistol I had only two (2) shots in the black and three in the white.  For the rifle all at least "touched the black" with a couple of pretty high scoring shots for an "above zero" score.  Beat that!

Well, I went to the real shooting range today.  I have a pistol target that I will mail - actually got 4 in the black.  The rifle off the bench wasn't good but it was better than terrible.  The only problem there was the SIX holes in the target.  Doug, sometime when I have lots of time I'll fire a group with each cylinder and see what happens.

Hmmm......my mailbox isn't overflowing with targets :mini-devil-28492:

feel free to post early............ whipping


Hanshi

Mine will be arriving soon but I hope the rain will stop so I can reshoot the pistol and shoot the bench target.  If worse comes to worst I'll have to mail in my dismal pistol and offhand targets and wince.

I'm trying to get back to the range this week.  I wait till after the weekend AR guys are done.  I've got a 25 yard rifle and a pistol ready but my 50 yard bench suffered from a senior moment and ended up with 6 holes.  I'm too CHEAP to send anything separately.  Hanshi is still not safe in our quest for last place.  As a side note, my brother, Doug, is hanging in there and struggling through the medical jungle. He is going to make it.  edit was because I pushed the wrong key again.

I'M interested and should have the time after the end of month,

Are we doing this monthly?
I got to the range today because the little match I was going to go to got rained out. The targets aren't very good but I got 5 shots into each. The 25 yd rifle target looks strange because 3 shots went in the same hole and just tore up the paper real good (I'm not good enough to do that on purpose!) so I adjusted over a little too much and made 2 more holes.

Blackfeet

Keep in mind that you can scan and email me the targets.  I am looking to do this monthly

I believe each target is for a 5 shot group, and it's my understanding that this will be a monthly affair.

Mine went in the mail today.  Hanshi is in trouble for our last place contest.

 strpot Last place my ___!  Looks like I'm not going to get out to shoot the bench match and reshoot the pistol and offhand targets.  It's either raining or as hot as a blackberry patch in Georgia.  noway

So I'll mail my two last place targets - GET THAT, RUSSEL, LAST PLACE - TODAY.

If you really wanted last place, just print out the targets and send them in without shooting at them. Saves you the time & powder, and of course they would look the same as if you did shoot at them.   ;D
