    Sounds good to me, Single stroke & Spring as most of us have at least one of them, looking at the targets Jamie has posted do i take it you can shoot either 10m or 6 yrd on the appropriate target as i shoot 10m and don't really fancy adjusting my zero for the postal and then back to 10 for the club.

    So Paddy leave it upto you for the dates as you are the man offering to do the scoring.

    Hi Guys.

    Just had ago, with the pistol at 6yds, my Hw45 not zero'ed shooting low & my grouping is slightly bigger than a £2 coin . At least this will give me some pratice to try & get better


    Right then the rules :

    Type: Spring Pistol / Single Stroke Pistol (to be stated when submitting score).

    Sights: Open sights only

    Stance: Top two targets two handed / Bottom two targets one handed (that way it caters for everyone & abit different)

    Targets: Follow link on post #1 >HERE< using the target with 4 targets on it.

    Range: Set at 6yds (That is the longest I can shoot in the back garden)

    Shots: 10/15 practice shots, then 5 shots per target

    Date: Anytime in the first week of every month. Starting May.

    Scoring: If the pellet breaks into two points i.e 8 & 9, you score the highest number

    Final scores: PM me with scores by Friday/Saturday.

    Update scores: I'll put on the thread Saturday/Sunday.

    If anyone can add to this or have any ideas please let me know.

    Regards
    Paddy.

    Paddy, two other matters that I can think of:

    - Are we restricted to one-hand hold or can we use two?

    - Are we restricted to iron sights or can we use optical?

    I like to shoot an air pistol competition the traditional way: one hand, iron sights - but many don't.

    I think with the short numbers it won't matter, I shall put on the score sheet what pistol used.

    Right then the rules :

    Type: Spring Pistol / Single Stroke Pistol (to be stated when submitting score).

    Sights: Open sights only

    Stance: Top two targets two handed / Bottom two targets one handed (that way it caters for everyone & abit different)

    Targets: Follow link on post #1 >HERE< using the target with 4 targets on it.
