The Rules.
Any 0.177 pistol.
Any sights.
Standing, unsupported and any grip - one or two handed.
The range should be as near to 6 yards as possible. A little under is ok as is a little further if you need more distance to get a scope to focus.
Only use the GARC pdf target sheets - download and print from the GARC Website.
One shot per "bull" for a total of 10 per round.
Score the target yourself.
Completed entries to be photographed and posted in this thread.
Honesty is the key here so, after practicing, commit yourself to shooting an official entry then submit it warts 'n' all - no shooting a dozen sheets then entering the best!

Open pistol! CO2 Dan Wesson with a cheapo red-dot from one of my airsoft guns.
One of these was shot yesterday and the other today:
(I hearby solomly swear that the pellets that tore chunks out of the paper on shots 4 and 8 did land fully in the outer ring/touching the outer ring respectively!)
I appear to be barely better with two hands and a red dot than I am with one hand and open sights. I shot one of the old target sheets double-action. That was great, I think I scored 6  |

Wow, never seen John Wayne using a 'six-shooter' with a sight before. |

This one's from Sunday. Pretty good! Bit of a jump from last time. Traditional zero, as expected.
I need to explain to the gun that although it might look like a .357, it doesn't need to leave .357 holes! Lord knows where in that gaping hole on target 8 the pellet actually struck, but it was probably a 2.

Just received a couple of cards from our old mate, Alex C.
You'll have to wait until tomorrow for an updated scoreboard but it's no longer a two horse race.

Final cards incoming! Round 4 - Saturday, round 5 - this morning.
Middling scores. Considering what I'd done with the "target" Webley Typhoon, a bit disappointing.

 C'mon Steve and Alex - you're not going to stand for this, are you? You've got the remainder of today and all of tomorrow to get three cards apiece in. |

Hah, 108 total for one handed iron sighted webley and red-dotted two-handed DW. By recent cards I'm worse with a sight. That's not supposed to happen!
