I only kept green but I made some modifications. I made the "X" thicker so you could see it better and I make the top part look better.

Here's your target I used yesterday at the 30 yard line. I was shooting some of the very thin muslin patches with awonderwad. The first shot hit high, and to be honest I think I took too much of a sight picture with the center of the circle, forgetting a full six o'clock hold postion. After that I settled down and shot four more (as I like to shoot a five shot or more group to discount flyers). Overall for a patched roundball that I can load under the muzzle with simple thumb pressure, I am kind of impressed with the way it shoots. Once the snow melts (we are having a small blizard here today) I can get more distance and see if they fall apart at longer ranges. The reason I think this is important is even my smoothbore will shoot accurate at close distances. It's when you get some distance from the target that things go downhill. But until spring I have to be happy with what I have to throw lead at.
