    Now does he realy expect us to belive he shoots 320 yards hitting squirrels with it?? That thing does better than some cneter fire rifles. Guess I'll have to buy one and find out for myself.

    I wish mine would get here so I could at least try it out to 150-200 yds. If I'm gonna shoot 320 it will be with something else. That guy that did the article you talk about must shoot everyday as much stuff as he puts on that website!!! The downloadable targets from him are usable and handy!! GHD

    For Varmint Hunter 320 yards is an off hand shot. Ya oughta see him at the bench, he shoots the fleas off the squirrels! That .17 is still to small for javelina and larger, so no use to me.

    One day I was spotting shots for my brother. I saw a spider crawl out on the target, so did he. The 22-250 spit a 55gr pill downrange and as I watched, a hole appeared where the spider was and the hole sported three legs, two on one side, one on the other. We laughed 'til we damn near choked. Around the campfire, we still talk about walkin' bullet holes.Clouder..

    Some times a shot like that, Is worth more than a big old buck.In the fall we have swarms of love bugs.They fly around in clouds attached by there rear ends.They are attracted to white.We go to the range and put up white paper.You can burn up a lot of .22 shells trying to separate them.There is a local name for them , But I cant print it here.
