So.....what did you shoot today?

[Matchstickshooter]

This must not be the same one then because I know I gave one to my BIL. He and my Sister have both passed away now and I thing my Nephew has that gun.


Here is a link to a blog on the GAMO P-23.

Well this is interesting... I was going to show you what I found last night from Amazon...and can no longer find them.
 Two different listings . One was shown with an eight rd pellet clip...like for the crosman pistols.   
 the other seemed to be 12 round bb  or single shot pellet   ah, well...

I think I remember sending the Vigi to you with a camo holster, that barely fit...

Yep, I have the holster.. my Schofield #3 fits it perfectly.

I was wrong about the model of that C02 pistol I was looking for. I found it and it is the Bersa BP9 CC. I don't have the right parts to reseal this one.

 Came unprepared to shoot the targets I meant to bring along, had to use the NUAH one. Shot the DRS with the Discovery 6-24 FFP scope. In a cool shady poison ivy patch, after that I ate wild berries

P3 from 33’ standing offhand at a mini soda can, then sitting on ground at a standard soda can, split between RH and LH as always. Should have done cans the other way around instead. All the sitting shots hit center can very close together. Only some of the standing ones did as well. (Not unexpected.)

I was able to retrieve all 60 pellets, though the 8 that bounced back and farther away from below front pellet trap took some hunting.

Hot, muggy, some spitty rain showers. At least I got in some practice.

Looks like you sat on a giant mushroom too 🍄‍🟫

That’s why they’re called toadSTOOLS!

Hope the berries were not in the poison ivy.

 Maybe I should have posted in the picture photography thread LOL Me and the poison ivy get along.

Capped the evening by shooting the Blue Streak standing offhand, three at 40’ and seven at 50’. I broke apart a mangled mini soda can, stuffed the halves into a mangled soup can, and put it in the pellet trap for the target.

No shooting today.  I did shoot pool yesterday at Pop’s before work.  I hope to sling some lead this weekend but I don’t really know what the plan is.  I can hardly believe it’s the end of June already.  This year is flashing by like ⚡️⚡️⚡️

More time shooting the freaky gun from the future... gk1 .25.  Mostly shooting jsb 33 grains.   Off hand at steel cans and spinners today.

 Boy is it muggy...

[Ronfiveo]

Having more fun punching holes with Eve and Dora and FrankenDaisy.
It's great having all three in good order.

Ronfiveo,

Yup, that’s it. Fun lyrics even though “pretty as a daisy” doesn’t mean the capitalized one.

RS78 (Repeater Special QB78 converted to HPA/PCP)

27 yards.

I haven’t exercised this rifle in quite some time.  Still had a full charge.  It was shooting way low.  I cranked the scope turrets to bring it up but as I shot it more the POI started to rise.  After it settled in and I had the turrets adjusted the turrets were back at 0.  You can see that top left target how the POI was rising. This gun is so easy to shoot.  It’s a very light single stage trigger.  I think I like it just as much as a nice two stage.  This is a fun shooter that I put together.  It has a LW barrel on it. 

[Mr.P]

Nice looking gun. 

Shooting the GK one again today, the main problem with this is the rate at which I go through pellets and the fact that 25 ain't cheap. 

Going to have to do some casting see if I can build up a good stock of 40gr BBT's which seat perfectly in the cylinder. 

I wish there were cheap .25 plinking-grade pellets in large tins for popping cans and "fun" shooting. I guess some Hatsan and H+N can be down around $.05/round

Was thinking of trying swaged .25 buckshot from ballisticproducts but don't know if the harder alloy would be an issue in this gun.  I use their 9mm balls in my rex P and they are good enough for plinking, seat snugly, and because only a narrow band (the equator of the ball) is swaged into the rifling, the harder alloy did not seem to be a problem.
