The target used for the event consists of five record bulls plus a sighter bull (lower right corner). The shooter is allowed as many shots as desired on the sighter and shoots one shot on each record bull. The center dot is considered the “X” with the 10 ring being the first ring around the dot. Best edge scoring is used with a perfect or “clean” target being a 50-5x. The shooter is allowed 7 minutes to complete a target.
One warm up target and five for score targets will be shot so you will need a minimum of 36 rounds and will probably shoot up to 75 rounds of ammunition.
