Description

I really wanted to see how my B5 backyard would work for this target. I was pretty pleased, but I have been shooting this for well over a month. I had to discard about a hundred subs due to the faintness and thin clouds that were apparent when blinking through. Garbage in, garbage out though. Breakdown looks like this in total:

L - 95 x 180s
R - 62 x 180s
G - 61 x 180s
B - 63 x 180s

I love this target, and I think dark nebula are just so special.
