Had fun today. I did get there early and shot one of the AR's and brought out my Izzy Fal that had not been shot in over a year.

Got to shoot one of those wiz-bang 10/22's that a friend of Funkfool's brought. after the first three shots all the rest go through the same hole.[Flower]

Shot the new witness and I like it.[Beer]

When people bitch about our weather they always seem to forget days like this one in the dead of winter.[Rant2]

Had a great time yesterday... Took the wife and let her get familiar with her new PPK...
She shot a few hundred rounds through it and by the end of the afternoon she was hitting bulls...
She was pretty excited about it... need to get some rubber grips on it and do a bit of work to break the edges (carry melt) on the grip areas..
Was great to see you again Jerry -next time I would love to put a few .38 super rounds downrange!

TEAMRICO - are you interested in finding a range? Or in seeing the Fountain FSC range?

Oh yeah... had a bit of an odd thing going on with the PPK... the holes on the PAPER appeared that some rounds we 'keyholing' - BUT the holes throught the cardboard were perfectly round...
I'll see if I cant get a picture up...
Anyone seen this type of thing before?

Here we go...

If you looked that the hole from the back of the cardboard... it was nearly perfectly round.
Ideas?

Jerry -
RE: the .22's - challenged the wife to put a round through the 1/4" hole used to hang the pack of targets...

She took 6 shots... low and right... ( I need to work with her... think the base of her finger is contacting the stock during trigger pull...)
I did it the first shot... I win - I still had to buy dinner though...[LOL]

Also - here is 29 rounds in under a minute (rifleman's cadence) through my 10/22 'whiz bang' rifle...
