I've recently been bitten by the 10m Air Pistol bug, so this month's Handgun Match will be based on it.
A basic ISSF 10 meter air pistol match consists of 60 shots, shot at 10 meters, 1-handed with a single-shot .177 caliber air pistol.
For this match, then, simply print out a NRA B-40 10m Air Pistol Target (link below), and take 5 careful shots (50 points possible). You can shoot 1- or 2-handed, but you must shoot standing, unsupported. As always, if you touch a line, you get the higher score.
Any handgun, iron sights or scoped. Separate rimfire and centerfire categories. Rimfire is shot at 10 yards, centerfire is shot at 15 yards. I haven't seen what the targets look like at 15 yards yet, but they're certainly bigger than those silhouettes y'all shot last month, so it ought to be very do-able.
When posting your target, include info about the gun, caliber, indoor/outdoor, 1- or 2-handed and ammo. Multiple entries permited.
Remember: rimfire = 10 yards; centerfire = 15 yards.
Good Shooting!
