How to run it

  1. From the ready, fire ten slow, aimed shots on the rings.
  2. Take all the time you want. There’s no timer on this one.
  3. Score every shot and total the ten. A shot that breaks a ring line takes the higher ring.

The standard

Clean runs only. Every shot counts toward the total, and the total is the score.
