So here is my first attempt at a 30y open sights 10 shot group.
Nothing to write home about, but not bad for a first attempt. I was shooting for groupings, not for score because I can’t get the 10.4gr heavies Zeored with the current open sights. I need to file down the front post a little 🙈 to raise the group. Be there is my first attempt. Nunga, I didn’t see that you had posted a target, I just used one I had in my shooting box, but I’ll try print off some of yours 👍🏻 |

My printed targets are square not round but you can easily see it at 30 yards It prints out to a full a4 sheet. It is in PDF.
Also on a side note. I just brought a Cannon 737 multi pump. open sights. It was cheap as chips and perfect for this challenge. I got it for the pigeon control shoot which is coming up on friday. One pump and the pellets are 380fps. Perfect for birds and wont damage any buildings. It is surprisingly accurate as well.

If you can see those at 30 yards, with one eye closed, the other one squinting, and half the circle covered by the back sight blade, then your eyes are way better than mine!
I'll try print off one of each of the three proposed targets above and see what each looks like at 30 yards. Nunga, have you got a possible 30yard target we can try aswell? |

Something like this might be more accurate, with one shot per each target on the page..
Once you've widened a group hole it gets bit difficult to judge exactly where any pellet hitting inside that hole actually hit. Just a thought.

Hundred bucks starts tomorrow ends 7th next month.
As far as I can see 30m, open sight,open cal,springer, any shooting position. Nunga can you post up the targets you mentioned please. My springer don't have open sights so best of shooting to the rest of you. |

How far back are the holes? Can you get a post and ring (they are on line) and direct screw it into the screw holes?
You'll have no excuse for not getting a 100% punching 30cal holes mercs lol. Edited by kruzaroad - 04 Sep 2024 at 2:31pm |

Mercs 👍🏻
Kruza, it’s still rattling around in my head… I’m now thinking of taking the dogs tail rail off and using the screw holes to attach aa home made ghost ring. I’ve worked out what height it needs to be, just need the tools to make it 🤔 I wish I had a workshop. |
