Two runs from one box, two runs from the other and the 5th is shooters choice of box. No movement.

I don't remember exactly how I shot this one. I got some help from a good shooter though and it was some sort of "circular" movement.

I think it was 3, 4, 1, 2, stop from the left box, and

2, 1, 4, 3, stop from the right box.

That sound plausible?

That's exactly how I would shoot it.

I know this will sound boring, but, after experimenting with this stage forever, I almost always just end up shooting it left to right, as they appear, from each box.
For me, that stage was always one to survive, with just solid, 2.75 - 3.25 runs. If I could do that, I was the winner. And if the first two runs went/felt good from the first box, I'd shoot the third one there right then.
