August E-Postal

Carteach has the August match up and it's vaguely similar to mine, only possibly worse since overlapping areas don't count for anything special.
Don't print this one. Go here and get the real thing. Carteach's link has the rules. Bring a calculator, math is hard.

As an exercise, see if you can figure out how to get 63 points out of this target without popping over to read the rules. Come on, not reading instructions is manly as hell and adds to the fun and entertainment value of any project.

Update: Scoring instructions on the target are correct. The original perfect score was imperfect.
E-Postal Limited Vickers: The rules call for 18 shots. If you're having a caffeinated day and your buddies are calling you "Shakey Jake" remember that shots missing the paper completely don't count. I've had a couple like that where some of the bullseyes were close to the edge of the paper and having fired the requisite number of shots, I count the holes and discover that I seem to still owe the target another round or two.
