WTC: KD down by pistol fire

[Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L]

just came to me ask this--haven't seen it

 

pistol first:  one stray shot hits and knocks down Shotgun target = 1 pistol miss

 

so now there are only 3 standing KDs

shooter knocks the, down and shoots a 4th round where it was at the downed KD

 

any penalty for shotgun shooting?

Shotgun clean.  For whatever reason that a shotgun is down before the shotgun string is begun, the standard response is to "shoot where it was."  A pistol error (miss) does not make for any sort of shotgun error - they are separate strings.

 

good luck, GJ

I can honestly say I wouldn't know what penalty could have possibly have been earned.

 

What penalty were you thinking might apply?

NOPE

"any penalty for shotgun shooting?"

NO.

- In the event a target fails or is downed, the shooter should “shoot where it was.”

   For safety reasons a target on the ground should never be engaged.
