Paul Valintakonis shot this perfect 10X target in timed fire for his team match at Camp Perry. Paul shoots for Team Springfield and is a HM shooter.

Seeing a target like that makes me want to hurt some paper. Dipnet

Murph,
Thanks for the photo of the Timed Fire Target. Outstanding shooting!
I realize that ANYBODY can post ANYTHING on these forums. But,
somewhere in my reloading room, I have a similar Timed Fire Target. Shot
on an indoor 25 yard range, was using a High Standard Victor, an UltraDot
Sight and CCI SV ammo. Mine however was only shot during a practice
session (on my own) and not at an actual match like this one was at Camp
Perry! Started Bullseye in 1979; it took me 30 years to shoot just one
100-10x! It has never happened again. Paul must've had a smile on his
face a mile wide after seeing what he did. Congrats to him! I realize it's
the "nut" behind the trigger, but do you happen to know what equipment
he was using? Curious minds want to know!

This is the 2nd 10x target he has shot. The last one was about 4 years ago at a regional in CT, and it was with his 45... A Springfield a Armory 1911 that was built about 16 years ago and has yet to be freshened up (that's coming soon).
This 22 target 10x was shot with his Hamerli with RWS target ammo. He liked the Marvel conversions and tried one at Perry. He may be switching if things work out.
