Gord,

Dunno why it would bother you. EVERYONE knows a borrowed gun is more accurate.

I play a game where my friend shoots and I try to hit the same spot.

Well one day I cheated and just shot off the target and said my shot went through his hole and he believed me.

I could tape a quarter on a cardboard target which is about the same size as the sticker. With a 22lr I could make real nice holes, and we could use the quarter as a kind of trophy! I lost the $9 after 11 targets, that’s 33 heats! Atleast I was good enough not to loose $33! Well we both were getting tired and it’s no longer a matter of markmanship but who makes the most mistakes! $3 was because I grazed his box, that means my degree of suckness is $6.
We are going to have a rematch this Saturday, this time we use his Kimber 45..

If explosions are what you want, try some of these rascals. http://www.tannerite.com/she_exploding_targets.html

My cousin bought a case of 'em. Mixed three together in a toner cartridge from a junk copier/fax machine. Put the cartridge back in the machine and set it off with his AR at roughly 125 yards. We only found two pieces of the machine bigger than a Bic lighter. We were finding pieces of that thing at least 80 yards from where it was sitting. Not as cheap as wafers, but then again wafers wouldn't do that to a fax machine. I'll see if I can get him to upload the video.

I have got to remember that for the next Groupshoot. It should improve my standing by what, three or four places?

Already got some! Fantastic!! My range doesn't allow me to use the full bottle but a Film canister sized amount does just enough to feel it on your chest when you shoot.

I printed off "dart board" targets. Our 9 year old son and I have a ball shooting darts at the range.
