I don't normally shoot at seven yards, but what the hell...

These were 42 grain hollowpoints out of my Ruger Mark III pistol,
shooting offhand. The suppressor was attached, and it carries a lot of
powder down the barrel, but not so much with a rifle.

I can do better, but I was shooting quickly, for me. Five shots in eight
seconds...I don't do that, usually.



Looks respectable. You should add some extra difficulty and put one
hole in each square. Maybe do the corners of the target or something.

Since you like bottles, 5 shots into 5 half liter bottles would be a
nice drill. They start shaving your time down. Mix it up by putting
them at irregular distances apart and shoot them out of order.



That's sort of what I've been doing...I've come down from two liter to
just over one liter bottles...

I'd really like to set up a 200 yard range like Hickock45 has, but not
way out in the Shenandoah Valley. Takes too long to get there.

I like shooting "gongs," bottles, et cetera, a lot more than printed
targets. One of my buddies shoots the flames (via blow by) off candles.
He's half my age and sees twice as well.
