For October I tried to find a fun Halloween themed target, (Ok I searched twice) but could not find one that had a pumpkin, or other Halloween theme AND an easy way to score that would challenge you guys.
SO...
Find your target here:

Score is the number in the circle hit, you will see that the smaller circles are worth more points. You need only break the line with your shot, (the ball has to actually hit the paper at a point that will break the line. Tear-overs don't count)
Aiming Dots are allowed so long as they do not fill past the circle outline. You may also color the circles in, as I will use a template to score.
As always per the following rules:
Fire 5 shots only, misses count!
The shooting distance for this contest is 25 yards.
No do-over’s.
Only registered forum members may participate.
Only traditional, open iron sighted muzzle loading firearms; peeps are allowed under the condition you mark your target so I know you used a peep. (Tracking it)(NO Cannons) .
Percussion or flintlock ignition. Cap and Ball revolvers are OK.
Single patched round ball only. No restrictions on caliber. (a patchless ball may be used if so desired)
Shots will be taken off-hand at the stated distance. Standing or seated is allowed, elbows unsupported by anything other than the shooters torso. In the event that a member is not physically able to hold his rifle up unsupported, a "prop-rod" that is supported only by the shooters torso, no part of which prop-rod may touch the ground, may be used to hold up the fore-end of the rifle.
*New Rule!!**
**Currently this will only apply to target shoots that I don't have to measure with a ruler. Unfortunately I do not have a printer to print them out with.**
Overseas participants may scan and e-mail me the target at [email protected]. As long as I can CLEARLY make the target out I'll accept it.** (I recommend using a dark backing paper when you scan / copy it if possible so that the holes show clearly)
Mutilated targets, or targets with more than 5 holes will be disqualified.
The center of the shot and the placement on the target will be determined by the judge.
Judges decisions are final.
Each contestant's score will be posted at the end of the contest.
Your member screen name must be written on your targets.
As a reminder if you use peep sights that too must be marked on your target. (Pretty Please!)
