This isn't a competition.
Here are the rules. 50 shots 50 yards Standing and unsupported Use the ubiquitous Birchwood Casey Shoot-N-C 6 inch stick on target. We are counting The number of hits on the target. Not ring scores. The purpose of this test is to create a a continuum, a yardstick for which we can compare our basic marksmanship skills. You can use a scope, red dot or iron sights.

Title said grapefruit challenge and I see no grapefruit in that picture.
If we are going to use real grapefruits and if I can shoot at it with my 460Rowland - Only going to have to hit it once for the target to be 'disappeared'...

Wasn't Molon's original Grapefruit Challenge 10 rounds? 50 gets a little crowded no?

How long can I take?
Also, that's a 12 moa target. You're going to get a lot of 50/50s. Count ring scores. How else are going to measure? |

I say we make this harder, same challenge but with a 2min time limit. 50rds with unlimited time is stupid easy.

Quote HistoryI dig the target.
On Topic: I'm confused with the reason for the weird 50rds, aside from it just sounds cool to say 50@50. 30rds and a time limit IMO. |

Cool drill.
Is it okay if I use a paper target with a 6" diameter bull? |

This is a 5.25" Shoot'n'See. I shot the drill with a Ruger 77/22, 2-7x scope, and Federal AutoMatch. The marked misses and holes outside of them are not part of the string of fire I shot. The six holes inside the marked misses are. I have no idea how long it took me to shoot it. You've got reloads, cold line, etc. I would shoot four or five and take a break. I'm guessing shot intervals were around seven seconds, breaks about a minute. I'll be generous and call four out of 50 outside of 6".

In spite of what members are saying it takes concentration and consitency to score 50/50

It is a sad story but I've been working since I made the target. It looks like I won't be able to shoot it until the end of the month unless I take a day off.
