Indoors with the Daisy Model 25

Well, kinda indoors. In the Red Shed with both the roll up doors up and the portable target stand just inside the lean to door. I set the double halogen work light stand off to the right so I don't have direct eyesight to it but it shines brightly on the targets. This gets me just over 8 meters from bench to paper. (about 24 1/2 feet)
I drilled the peep out to 3/32 and cleaned up the burr. I repainted it with a black paint marker to cover any scratches from the file.
I'm using the 10 meter Gr8 paper targets and Daisy Precision Max BBs.
Sighting things in was an experience of rediscovery. I haven't sighted in opens or peeps in some time and it was poke and hope until I figured my right from left and up from down. But once I got that sorted I can keep most shots in the 3rd ring and all in the big ring.
I'll post some pics when I get some worthy results. Maybe we can even get a BBs only match going if we get enough folks in the new BB Gun Gate to participate. But for now, I'm enjoying the snot out of this on this rainy day.

I did the same thing to the peep on my M25. It is fun grabbing it and shooting a couple shots in the basement. I have a target trap (5 gallon bucket filled with rubber mulch) always set up at about 30 feet with a target on it. It is getting more and more accurate as time goes on. That is just me getting steadier with time. Shooting several times every day helps. My deer rifle is also fitted with a flip up tang peep sight so the practice translates to the hunting rifle.

Looks good Frank.

Fun.
Another I use it for is shooting burned out florescent tubes in the trash…
