Blanks
Below are the test results for all mounted shooting blanks tested. Mounted shooting blanks must break at least 5 balloons every time at 10 feet and they cannot break balloons consistently at 20 feet to become CMSA Certified.
Mounted shooting blanks are test fired at three prescribed distances. The rating score is the average number of balloon breaks out of five shots. The blanks are tested several times each of the distances for consistency.
