We used to have a group from church that got together a couple times a year to burn some black powder. What Fun! We shot all types of targets, cutting a playing card in two, shooting the flame off of a paper candle, splitting a ball on a double bit axe and hitting two clay pigeons, cutting a 2x4 board in two (team relay shooting) and others. We didn't keep any kind of score but we didn't have much mercy on a missed shot either! Unfortunately most have either moved on or passed on and I miss the fun we had. About the only target that was even close to "long range" was a gong at 80 yards, but trying to guess where the edge of a playing card was at 10 or 15 yards was long enough for most of us.
