    I'll take it

    1 round at 50m with my 50+ year old Voere repeater .22 off a BR rest with a back bag Leupold 1 - 4 set on 1 power.

    Played around with rabbit ammo then had a few shots at another target with some Eley did not dial the scope in for the ammo changed the target and this happened.
    The Voere was my first rifle I ever got as a 16 year old boy that I could legally license by myself it has been on many adventures with parrots and rabbits.

    It was one shot pretty close to a spinner which we used to do if you hit the dead center of the full bore target you signaled a V bull but spun the score paddle to signify the hit.

    Use the magnify to enlarge it I was pretty stoked as you could not really see how good it was through the rifle scope but the spotting scope told the story.........

    I'm using a CZ457 with a Vortex 4-12 presently, it'll consistently hit a gong at 100m that resembles the size of your upheld index finger. I still have my little Remington Model 34 that I've had now for 52 years since I was 15 but with only iron sights, it's harder to shoot for me.
    Regards, Jim

    I had a similar target with my Practical Elite pistol when shooting with my youngest daughter two weeks ago.
    First round bullseye at 25 metres.
    I called her and told her to pack. We could go.
    She laughed her pants off and convinced me to stay.
    Was ok, but a single hole right in the center would have done too...
