About 35 yards? Of course, you could use paper. I suspect that you were more concern with hitting something. Kinda like hitting a Coke can from a few feet away. When you hear the metal being hit, smile seems to come on the face, which is good enough to call the shot accurate.
I love bouncing drink cans across the backyard. :o ;) :lol: :lol:

Yep, I remember starting out shooting cans with my BB gun. Now, mostly paper targets. I like to move out in the rural, so I can explore with other things to shoot at: jugs, bottles, cans, and a like. For now, paper will do.

Jackson, yes, but out in the county, the south east part of Madison.

Replacement Lyman digital gauge arrived today. I had put my old one away for safekeeping, and it was for sure safe from me.

H006M trigger pull is averaging 2 Lb-14 Oz, which isn't bad, but I think I'm gonna lighten it up a bit.
What would you guys take it to?

Probably 2-2.5, but most of mine see some hunting so I don't want them to light.

I no longer hunt but don't want it too light for my grandchildren.
I'll probably go for 2.

Well I don't hunt much any more, but I do get out occasionally. I still have a few more years I hope.
I've acquired a couple of new to me firearms, and wouldn't mind trying them out.
Like you I have some grandsons coming up and Hopefully some/part or all will show an interest in them.
