How ABRA Scoring Works
Your target score is the total of the 20 record bulls. A score of 200-6X means you scored 200 points with six Xs. Match results also show aggregate scores and match points. Rankings are organized by class and environment.

The ABRA Scoring Program builds on X-Out 300’s electronic scoring and match management workflow. It applies that workflow to ABRA’s 20-bull targets, 200-point scoring, and competition classes.
Set Up the Match
Authorized scoring computers can download scheduled matches and refresh club and competitor information. Match Directors assign benches and classes and print target labels.
Scan, Score, and Review
Scan or import a target and let the program detect shot holes and propose scores. Review close calls on screen or enter scores manually. The program tracks score, X count, and First Miss.
Track Standings
Follow target standings and aggregate results for all classes on one scoreboard. Print results or keep a local match CSV that refreshes as targets are finalized.
Share Match Results
Enable Live Results to share the scoreboard while scoring. Send completed results to ABRA for approval and publication in match history and competitor profiles.
Download match information before heading to a range with limited internet. You can score offline and send the completed results when you reconnect.
