I hope to be back shooting within a month,first I have to close on the house and get moved in, set up the range in the basment, buy that Daisy 953 and do a couple mods...... OK maybe 2 months.....

OK so 2 seconds after I printed out a target I'm down in the basment of the place I'm staying at with my 1377 trying my hand at the 5yd target. Not sure if I used the right target..... seems a little big for 5yd's......I just couldn't wait to get some shootin' in ;D

Bill,

I will most definitely be participating, hopefully you guys will be easy on me since i'm new to the sport. But hopefully over time i'll get myself up there with the best of you guys.

Not to worry famine, these guys run nice friendly matches. I've been hooked since I posted my first target. Of course, they were all shot at the wrong distances, but I've remeasured my range twice now.

Can't wait to get back in the game!

Well I don't like shooting where I live for the fact that some neighbors might mistake the gun for a rifle. So I will be shooting either at my grandfathers or brothers house since they do not have neighbors close by and have good yardage to practice at. I did try the 10 meter silhouette shoot posted at AG1 by bill but I was too ashamed to post it.

It was the one where you shot one row sitting, one standing, one prone, and one kneeling. Sitting i got 50 points but missed all the others. :( lol

Don't feel so bad Famine,

I only fired an 80 ! and I came in dead last !!

Who cares, at that point I can only get better, but not my poor knees :(

Just come on out and shoot with us fellows !

Bill, I hope to be joining in the festivities soon myself. I've got several things going on with my shooting irons and as soon as I get them situated and zeroed in again, I'll start posting in the 30 yard bench rest. I'm old and my eyes can't handle irons only, unless I use my turkey gun, PL1KS.  ;D
Might shoot and post that one just to annoy Gene. LOL

I can def do the shorter range matches... all I am able to wrangle out of my yard is 15-20 yards max
