My brother in law and I ran out after lunch to see if we couldn't get some shooting in. Its a little shy of an hour out to where we wanted to try. As Yoda would "Do or do not. There is no try." We hammered them. between the two of us we shot just short of 200 rounds. I was shooting my T/C 22 250 and he had his Howa mini 204. We did very well in the shooting department shot from 100 to 350 yards, there was little wind. I know we did better than 50% more like 60 to 75%. When we finished there were dead bodys everywhere you looked. well over a 100. Anything  at the 250 mark we killed. Sometime we would go 10 for ten sometimes we could get 15 out of 15. What a slaughter. We walked in from the "back" of the town and never let our selves get skylined. The p dog acted like we were not even there, when we shot a dog 5 more would stand up. 4 hours non stop, we had to let the guns cool...Clap

Way to go D. It don't get no better than that. 
I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on.
