Clean a Target... Show us!

First topic message reminder :
Just thought we could all use some Positive Reinforcement so I made this a "sticky" which means its always at the top in this topic. So when you shoot a clean target and want to hoot a little post it here for all to see!
Here is what I did last night at our weekly indoor league, 50 ft on the NRA reduced target, shot Timed fire style in four strings of 5 shots, we hang two targets at a time. 100 6x and a 100 7x this was a first for me to clean two in the same set of targets. Ended with a 493 26x out of possible 500.

Wow, Jon! That's fantastic! If that's for someone else, they will be one happy recipient.

Jon,
I'm not your customer (yet!), though I would happily take that one off your hands if your other customer turns it down. I think my next gun is going to be a Matchguns MG2, ideally with electronic trigger. In the meantime, I need to shoot some more 100s with my humble Ruger Mk IV so I can contribute to this thread!

Almost got the entire X! Kind of reminds me of my youth trying to remove the whole star with the BB rifle at the carnival. Sometimes I would think back on those times when trying to do the same with the X.
Nice target, Jon!

Speaking of contributing... here's another 100 from tonight, in timed fire. I shot it with a Ruger Mk IV 22/45 Lite, Vortex Venom red dot, and CCI Standard Velocity .22 ammo. That target was part of my new personal best league match, 863/900 and included 96/95/95 slow fire scores. I had a fun evening, and I look forward to this being my new usual performance.

Shot this 100/5x RF yesterday at the monthly match in Columbia TN. Was nice early in the day but was 96 by time we finished. Still managed a 2579/94x despite the heat taking its toll. Shot with a custom 45 from Jon with Magnus #801 bullets over 4.1wst.

Thanks Ed.
Positive mindset is helping alot. I'm focusing more on 'what did I do right?'

Ended up with an 862-34 for this morning's monthly 900 match. Not a personal best, but close!
Need to get to work on picking up lost points during slow fire...(or go back to shooting slow fire at sustained fire pace!
)
(I post these for my own mental impression)

Nice target! This one would be a good visual aid to check every now and then. Sometimes I like to compare the groups to other images. This helps retention. This group looks like an arrow to me.

Here is mine from the last weekend club match at Gateway R&P. My first ever 100 in competition. 100-6X. And it was with my 32. Haven’t done it yet with a 22 or 45.
It was timed fire at 25 yards and the club President happened to be scoring my target and signed it. Great honor as he is a High Master.

Shot my first timed fire clean in practice. Marvel conversion with a dot on my Service Pistol frame. Was focusing on just moving the trigger to the rear. It felt almost effortless. Definitely an “in the zone” moment!

This afternoon I cleaned my first timed fire target shooting a few 300's with one of my club teammates. The rhythm was right, the dot landed on center and the gun fired, oh what a beautiful sight picture 10 times.

Look at those beautiful little bullet holes all clustered in the 10 ring! So relaxing to see these. For some reason even the photo alone makes it look effortless.
