I am working on a reduced range AR target using the excel sheet from the old high noon postal competition. For AR, the spreadsheet recommends external rings, and I see at 6m the internal ring goes negative. But I don't understand how an external ring target is scored. I tried to do a search but came up with nothing relevant. Can anyone explain this. Thanks

This should help, fom the NSRA Rules:

Inward Gauging. For inward gauging the value of a shot will be decided by the edge of the shot hole
nearest the centre of the target as determined by the use of the gauge. When the flange of the gauge touches
the line, the higher value will be credited. Shots outside the scoring rings have no value.

Outward Gauging. For outward gauging the value of the shot will be decided by the edge of the shot hole
furthest from the centre of the target as determined by the use of the gauge. When the flange of the gauge
touches the outside of the line, the lower value will be credited (See Figure 4 (appendix B)). Shots which touch
the outside of the lowest value scoring ring have no value.

OK, I just have to think backwards when I score on an external ring target.
