greetings to all !

after reading this article I have a few questions.

1 - Buryat , Uryankhai styles , what type of targets are used for these and how are they arranged ?

2 - are the cylinders stacked in a wall with the object of shooting thru them ?

3 - and last what was the winning score last year ? what would be a
" good " score ?

I am planning on sponsoring an open contest in Pennsylvania in early august of next year and would like to make it as authentic as possible so any and all information will be great !!

In Khalkha style, the objective of the target is to knock them down like skittles. The more that are knocked down, the higher the score.

I'm afraid I don't have details of recent scores. Munkhtsetseg is in the USA somewhere. You may be able to find her.
