I used to live near the Pistol River.We,d camp there and drink beer till midnight and Pistol dawn!

In TX we were shooting and I had a .22 cal. pistol. There was this green enamel yard light up on the power poke.
I shot at it, then this thing was heading for me.
Nailed me right square in the chest.
I was some hopping around. The ricochet left a purple herbie alright.🤣

We tried when we were young to light a wood match.
Across the yard shoots.
Took the white off lots of times, but the velocity wasn't enough.
Still prefer open sights over scope.

We were taught in the Marines to focus on the front sight,the rear sight and target should be a bit blurry since the eye can only focus on one point at a time. I don,t have any trouble with that now.

In strange directions! Veering and yawing in all directions.

That is nothing. I watched Jed Clampet shooting a pistol backwards over his shoulder ricocheting shots to light matches at 100 yards.

That,s why I called on him!

Speaking of coons & pellet guns I have one getting into the garbage for the last few days.Been practicing to show him what fur .

Its not strong enough to kill one but at 5 to 7 yards it could take his tail off.Left & right groups are 6 rounds ea.,the center group is 12 rounds

Rifled barrel and a fine trigger is the reason . Umarex knows how to build quality
