  • Shooting the M16 @ 200 yards today

    Had some fun at the range, just sat down and shot ammo until it got dark.

            Damn man, you shoulda hit me up. I met my sister at Winchester so she could practice with her .38 snubbie (second time ever shooting it). I also ended up talking her into shooting my AR (her first time ever shooting a rifle) and shooting the Mosquito (which she loves).
            Her first ever attempt at shooting a rifle:


            My target (rapid fire, 30 rds)


            Her shooting the mosquito (she's a helluva pistol shot):


            (that's the closest the degenerates around here are going to get to a pic of her)

                    Look at Scott holding out. Not speaking for myself but there are some good souls on this board. hahaha


                    CJ ringing a gong at 200 with open sights looks like a great time. But I will be impressed when you post up the video doing that with your 10/22.
                    Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

                        Sheeeeeeit. I tried. Results were less than impressive. I think if I tried harder I could do better.



                        The ammo I was using is probably the culprit, 50 year old remington. I was getting occasional hits with nearly no variation of shot placement.

                            Nice shooting CJ. I'm awaiting the arrival of a Savage 93 TR in .17 HMR from Ray's Sporting Goods, I wonder how well it shoots out to 200 yards.

                            Today was a nice day to shoot for sure. Myself and some friends went out to Elm Fork. Very nice range, clean and the staff is friendly.

                            Shot the AR15, Remington bolt action 308 and for the first time, an AK47, S&W Sigma 40, and S&W BodyGaurd 380 Auto.
