Week 157: Dot Torture

[DEG]

Gun and holster used: Gen4 Glock 17, JMCK appendix, Magpul mags in Fricke carrier, all concealed under sweatshirt
Distance: 7 yards
Total score: 49/50
Pass or fail: Fail
Anything you noticed: I love this drill and it felt pretty good at this distance today. I had one outside the three ring that was so close! Gave it my best, but was pushing most of the shots to the left of the circles. Today was one of those exciting Kansas days where it snowed in the morning then warmed up to t-shirt weather in the early afternoon.

Nice shooting, this is where it gets hairy.

Are the parameters for a "hit" set in stone, or does it just depend on the shooter?

As an example, I only count a hit if I break the black line.

From the way the picture looks, I'd have counted all those as hits. I think the most standard scoring convention in shooting is that if the grease ring touches a scoring line, it counts as in, not out. As far as I know, TLG was an adherent to the standard convention.

Great shooting DEG!

Found this - scoring discussed by ToddG:

Any bullet that clearly touches the scoring line of the intended target circle is counted as a hit.

Post 21 is his and goes into detail about it aswell.

Thanks for the link and explanation. I've been waaaaaay hard on myself after seeing the targets in that post! I wasn't even counting anything touching the outside of the line. I'll give 7 yards another go on Saturday and post the target.

Good to see someone else using a 2022.

Good to see someone else using a 2022.

I just picked it up on Monday and today was the first 150 rounds down range with it. I made some notes on the other DoTW but I guess I should use my training journal to document the switch over from the G19.
