Not sure if "copying" is cool (and some of you may have already done this), but I came across "Rastoff's Challenge" a few weeks ago in Tapatalk on the S&W forum. Here's my version:
Target: Clean target of your choice, not everyone has or wants to go out and get a specific target. Use a fancy silhouette target, a shoot-n-see, a laser printed target, or a blank sheet with a sharpie drawn dot on it. It really doesn't matter.
Gun: Any iron sighted "suitable for personal defense" handgun .32cal or larger. If it's a DA/SA pistol, the first shot from each distance must be done DA. If it's a DA/SA revolver, all shots must be DA.
No timer, but this isn't a bullseye match (no offense intended to anyone with bullseye experience...talking about bullseye and 3-10yd shooting distances :rofl . Within each string, try to keep the splits no more than about 2s.
4 shots at 3yds
6 shots at 5yds
6 shots at 7yds
4 shots at 10yds
I'm sure some of you are going to post up "one ragged hole" type groups, so instead of trying to measure center to center of widest shots, we'll measure the longest distance from outside edge to outside edge. Smallest group wins. Post a pic of the gun used with the target. Enter as many times as you like.

It's kind of late in the game for this, but it just occurred to me, this part might not have been clear to all. Since this is based on what's allegedly the TX concealed weapons course shooting part of the class, all shots should be done standing any grip you like, unsupported (i.e. no bench or rest). If you're handicapped (unable to stand), fire while seated, but still with the gun unsupported by anything but your hands.
