    Any 20 yard pistol shooters out there??

    I'm hoping someone can help by telling me the height of the centre of a PL15 target from the ground for 20 yard air pistol. I know that at 10m the centre of an air 4/89 target should be 1.4m.

    Is it the same for 20 yard?

    So far, Google searches haven't unearthed the information for me.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

    Regards
    Mike.

    Many thanks to both of you for the info. We'll give it a try at 1.4 m.

    Having seen a certain Mr Paul"how does he do it" Ray put his last four shots through the bull at 20 yards yesterday afternoon, I am reasonably confident that the latest discipline to our club pistol shooting exploits will be won by said Mr Ray armed with his recently fettled LP5. Due to messing about with another pistol during this"sighting"event, I unfortunately missed out on this, but look forward to letting my P34 loose as it looks like a challenge. Does anybody else reckon that shooters like Paul are born that way, or is it due to lots of practice over many decades? It is so frustrating for many like me who have only discovered how difficult accurate match pistol shooting is at such a late stage in their lives.
