Well done Andy
I have no experience of bell target and we last shot 6 yds what must be 40 years ago at a NARPA championships at some RAF base in the midlands? Cosford?
We only shoot air at 10 mt but as I said standing is standing, the technique is the same wether its a recoiless match air rifle or what ever, at what ever range. It's very technical and that technique must be right and then it becomes easy (or easier!).

The hole in a bell target is 3/8" so that i guess is about the same size as some bullseyes and splitters dont count as a 5.

Thanks Andy
The ten at 10 mts is 0.5 mm (20 thou!) and you must touch it for a ten. The world record is 600 ex 600 and I watched the olympic champion Nicolo Campriani shoot a 600 this year in the qualifying for the British Championships. Technique rules!

Ohh i have cleanly took out the smk bulls which are roughly 3mm before, pity there was not any 10 metre clubs in my area when i was younger.

Seems like this target shooting is my vocation!
