As just about every e-Postal match turns out, this one was way harder than it looks, since you could actually score negative scores by hitting a line. Kind of like hunting. You want either a well placed shot for a clean kill, or you would rather miss completely. This match punished you for only wounding a circle, and not getting a clean kill!
According to Billl, this target is "One of the evilest pieces of paper I've seen that didn't have a lawyers signature on the bottom of it. " !!
To be fair, most matches with scoring for accuracy start with a score of zero, and each good hit increases your score from there. In this match, the worst score you could get is minus 140, so even a bit below zero isn't too bad at all.

Thanks to all for braving the sometimes crummy weather and getting out to the range to shoot the match.
This match forced you to use strategy, and the leftover targets are great sighters for checking scopes!
