All that stuff about wandering zero is much over stated, it would seem, to those who like the little rifle.

Here is my scoring with my #5, As you can see the off hand stage started off looking really good but seemed to peter out twards the end.

Keep in mind the rapid fire scores are not necessarily in order, they are scored after all 10 rounds have been fired and posted on a small chalk board that is hung in the target. The chalk board startes at the top with X's and works down from there 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 0. the number of shots that scored each value is chalked in next to the score number.

As you can see the offhand stage scores add up to 61 rather than 69.
