[GunCrazed]

I went down to my mom's in Buchanan this weekend. While down their, I took my Marlin .22 Magnum rifle and got the chance to see how well I still shoot.

The pictures below are of the results. There are 3 holes (1 at the top, 1 on the left side, and 1 on the bottom) which are nail holes... don't confuse them for misses. :lol:

The shooting was at 125-130 yards out, which I know isn't as far as some of you fellas shoot... but it made me happy. 3 shots at the 4 surrounding targets and 6 at the middle target. Each target is about the size of a half dollar:

Nice shooting Guncrazed. What type scope and brand of ammo are you using?

 

[slabertooch]

nice shooting, you really drove some nails on the lower right target.

 

[GunCrazed]

Triggerman, the ammo was Remington brand... 50 rounds for $15 at Wally World. The scope is a Tasco Buck Sight 3-9x 40mm.

slabertooch, that bottom right target was by far my favorite. I walked down to check it and thought, "Holy hell! Did I just do that!?"

Nice shooting, and 125 yards is plenty long for a .22mag like that.

 

[GunCrazed]

thank ya

I brought it back to the house and was running around showing everyone... of course, my mom was like, "is that good?" I had to give her a 15 minute lecture on what it means to shoot groups like that.

 

[slabertooch]

yep, that one would go on my door, until I shot a better group. heck I still have my range data book from back in 2001 when I shot a pre-qual score of 62/65. very proud of that day, didn't drop anything until 500yrds, and they were just off the left shoulder.

 

[foshizzle]

Yeah, I would definitely be proud of that.

Ok,
Is this a trick photo or what?
I know I am getting old, but that sure looks like an awfull big bore on that rifle to be a 22 magnum.
Just a thought.
:shock:

TJ its counter bored if you look real close you will see the small hole in the dark.

Got me at first too. Old man eyes.

Gun Crazed thats very good shooting for 22 mag at 125yds. Remind me to never tick you off.

 

[GunCrazed]

hahahaha! thank ya ber950

It does look like a larger bore size because of the angle of the picture. But like Ber950 said, look a little bit closer and you can see it.

If I can't see it in the light then I really can't see it in the dark.
