I THINK I remember back when the AP target was changed. An "11" ring was put in (I think) to enable better electronic scoring.
At a match today, I was told it was an "X" ring to be to be included in the score and used a a tie-breaker. I disagreed.
Any knowledgeable folks out there care to educate me?

Re: AP Xs WTF?
Tiebreaker was my understanding....but then I thought I learned that from you?!
Re: AP Xs WTF?
I remember a LONG time ago when they shrank the target rings a bit. I don't recall if they added the "inner ten" ring at that time. It is not technically called an "X-ring", but it functions the same. It is used for tiebreaking if you don't have decimal scores from an electronic target system.
Under ISSF General Technical Rules, Section 6.15, Tie-Breaking, the very first test is:
a) The highest number of inner tens

Re: AP Xs WTF?
To build a bit on what Gwhite already said, the x-score is used as tiebreaker in the qualification round, decimals are used in the knockout style final.
Speaking of added rings, the centers for 25m rapid pistol paper targets used in finals will do your head in with added 9.7 and 10.2 rings.
Sorry for the bad picture quality (and thread derailment).

Re: AP Xs WTF?
I believe the NRA has always used the Airgun X ring as the first tiebreaker.
