It was put back as the stickers did not come each shooter has a sticker that is put on the target so they know witch shooter they are scoring and as there is around 2000 shooters from different clubs in the comp they need the stickers lol so he just had a practice session ten shot string he did ok score was 51 for ten shots on two targets score 102 range was 6 and ten mtrs well happy with that atvbjimmy 1 Quote Link to post
