50 rounds, best possible score 250, passing score 175. You can pass the test in 35 shots, 5 shots before you even get to 15 yards.SCone wrote:You'll have no trouble. The 3 yard target seems like it's hanging on the end of the barrel. And with the target being a full-size torso, it's HUGE. Do the math, just get the first 40 rounds ANYWHERE in the 8 ring & you've already passed the test with 10 rounds to go.
The target is still huge, but it's not the "8-ring" anymore; the B-27 was discarded in favor of the TX-PA target, where the head, neck and heart are 5, the rest of the COM is 4, and anything else in the silhouette is 3.
Old (B27):
New (TXPA):
There seems to be some confusion though; some CHL courses still fire at the B27, and at least one has you start from "low ready" (you must raise, aim, shoot) instead of "ready" (you're already sighted, just shoot). I guess this is left up to the instructor, or some websites haven't been updated.
