Is there a "Blindfolded" category?

It might make my ancient Crosman 1322 more accurate?!!!!!! Big smile

This is slightly off topic, but I am guessing most of us will print off the targets. I am keen to know what gets the best "hole" as in the cleanest hole from the pellet. I know sometimes the pellet can rip a tag, so if it was stuck onto cardboard or something to support the paper, the hole will be neater. Like gluestick it to cereal box cardboard.

Just to help highlight all the bullseye clover leafs we will get.

Cement board is delightfull to shoot as it will leave an exact circle, but of course it'snot practical.

Cheers -Ec. Looks like this was a good idea of yours. 👍
A two litre milk bottle filled with water punches a clean as hole. So maybe a 2 litre filled with sand or dirt would produce the same effect for back stop.

Buy cheap cardboard and print on that for consistent holes with only rarely any tears...works for me.

Good idea Pauly glue stick found and next 3 targets attached to light card.

I will staple to pine board to collect pellets.

Single handed next, weather is wet and windy so not today. 

I will set up a table to tabulate scores.

No rain here yet, put the winds are horrendous.   Even though my tiny home weighs 9 ton and is held down with 8 wind anchors it's shaking a bit.   A much smaller cabin has been blown over in Dannevirke and  there is a roof off and power lines down in Norsewood.

Don't think I will be setting up the drop saw outside and making a pellet trap for the garage today.  Hopefully I can find a big enough cardboard box to stuff full of old rags to hold the target as  temp solution 
Regards

Im not sure why im on there mercs. I only have the 1322 with stock.
Gave pauly the pistol grips.
Also don't have trigger or middle finger on shooting hand. Pistols aren't really an option for me.
Wasn't joking on the" you might as well be wearing a blindfold section"
If you want to put a section up for that, ill be happy to compete against the targets you guys shoot that don't make your grade. Probly still wont get anywhere. 👍

Can't you shoot two handed? 
You can't take the stock off your 1322 pump is it?

I can take the stock off. But i dont have pistol grips. As mentioned above.
Once i lose shoulder and forearm support the trigger finger tends to pull the gun right. Its why my rifle is thumb hole these days.
If i have the forearm and shoulder dealing with the cant and steadying, i can let the weight on trigger hand sit above where thumb wraps through the stock.
The 1322 stock, I have altered the pistol grip with jb weld to my hands shape and have included ledges for the cut middle finger to take some of the wieght.
Yes i could shoot left handed, if had grips, but would take more practice and pellets than im willing to put in for something im not really likey to take up.
Rather be doing what i was just doing. Shooting the hw97 in winds, of that hold an average of 25 to 32km depending. Gusting up to 49kmh ( highest ive recorded) at a water filled can from 10 to 35m.
Dont waste the wind people great day to play with windage.

Hi Kruza, list updated.

Perhaps you can be the commentator and make sure we are receiving regular updates.

Paper target prints have stuck to card well enough but as suggested some light card from warehouse stationary could also be a good option and work in most printers.
