Shootin' abe w/10-22

Post by GunnyGene » Mon Oct 21, 2024 1:16 pm

Had a little fun this morning. Got the Barska scope properly dialed in then glued pennies on a fresh target.
Target backer is 1/4" plywood, but one of the pennies got thru and disappeared into the woods.

I used to take a card board box and put spent 22lr cases into it in a grid pattern. I'd sit for hours punching the cases all the way through the box.

That looks like fun. Reminds me that I need to get some shooting done with the 10/22s.

No. I would have had to position the pennies so the edge was towards me. That would be a tough shot, but it's doable. ;) :lol:
