6 yard pistol shoot. 5,49meters

   Should be able to set something up - but the rear sight is a simple piece of plastic with a slot cut in it.  

There is a screw on the side for windage adjustment

If I can easily remove the rear sight blade I should be able to fabricate a replacment with a narrower but deeper slot. With a bit of testing I should be able to get a blade that is adjusted for a 6 yard range.  If I keep the origonal unaltered I can swap it back if I want to try longer ranges.

Will have to have a  closer look at the gun.

	Kruz, its a target pistol. I think it is pushing around 2 to 3 fpe, which is where they are set originally and it only has a single stroke pump. Built for accuracy rather than power. It would have gone through the card, but the plywood was hard up against it meant it bounced off.

	This might be a silly question and it may have already been asked or answered but what is the target sizes we will be shooting at? as there are many different bulls eye and circle sizes out there. I have two different one here myself. do i just choose the largest of the two to get more points? :)

	I need more practice. First 2 shots off left, I need to figure out what I did regarding the 3 other shots :-) 2nd target a disaster A quick down & dirty session in the shed, (prepping for the granddaughters' invasion) 5.5m distance (checked via LRF) Seated resting on rifle tripod Daisy 44 .177 BSA Target .177 pellets Total score 34 :-( Edited by Andy-A - 6 hours 28 minutes ago at 12:32pm

	Thanks Andy, thats a nice centred bull, some parts of NZ would need windage correction even indoors today, mainly wet in Taranaki, hope all are safe. Results update and target link on Page 3. Where you are practicing and start to improve results, please post or PM me and I can include them or add to additional tables. Remember Kruza is watching for "the good, the bad and the ugly".

	Wind-free enclosed in my 9x7m man shed :-) The good, bad & ugly shots, may be down to the finger on the trigger placement. I tried pulling the trigger, using the near tip of my trigger finger, and not curling it around the trigger, think curling it may cause it tp pull on the gun? Hope that makes sense.

	I think i will choose another gun to use. this one of mine cant hit a barn door at 10 feet! I have a couple of CO2 pistols in the gun safe. Havent used them in years so i might drag them out and see if they still hold pressure

	No one has actually stated how long the comp runs for. You get to submit your best 4 targets, but when by? Jan 1st? Give ppl time to play around. Ppl may have more time over xmas break to shoot. Winner starts the new year with bragging rights, while the rest plan the next challenge to attempt a dethrone. Edited by kruzaroad - 35 minutes ago at 5:28pm
