Don't EVER shoot chocolate! That's sacrilege! (From an avowed chocolate addict )

Then, whatever you do, DON'T watch my video from Christmas. Quite a bit of chocolate got vaporized that day...

Those nasty little heart candies will probably be on some good clearance sales right after Valentines Day.

You are exactly right!! February 15-28 still count. That was what I did in December...went to Walmart and got Christmas stuff on clearance. Heck, I only paid like $0.50 for the snowman ornament, and I certainly got more than $0.50 of joy by blowing him up. I agree, those heart candies are nasty chocolate (for the most part) and deserve to get blown up. Sorry @Gerry52

These probably aren't quite as nasty as the heart chocolates, but I saw these at the store today.

I would LOVE to blow some of these up. Especially if they are cold/frozen, and that is a good state for them to be in in February in Colorado. Right now, I believe that they were around $5 a pack, which is WAY more than I want to spend, but I will see if I can find some on February 15th or later for cheap. Stay tuned...

I would LOVE to blow some of those up, however they would all be gone by the time I made it to the range.....

We have gotten quite a bit of snow over the last few weeks, so this has kept me from taking this challenge. We finally had some nice weather, so I snuck outside to take this "actual" target challenge. Here is a link to the video:

Here is a picture of my target, after being a target.

I split the wood with this one, so this target will be retiring now. I also blew the steel plate out of the back of it, and it buried itself in the snow somewhere. I will find it in a couple months when everything thaws.

As always, I hope that you enjoyed this little presentation as my entry for the "Unofficial" AGN Monthly Shooting Challenge. If you did, please VOTE IT UP to the right .

Since nobody had blown up the happy little heart yet, I figured I would sneak in under the wire and get one in. Here is a link:

So, I used my SIG Sauer We The People 1911 to take the challenge at 25 feet. I sucked pretty bad, getting a score of -1! Here is a picture of my finished target:

I almost got -2, if I had been a little closer to heart #6.

Oh well...I tried.

Since I was the only participant in BOTH the paper and actual target challenges last month, I got bragging rights for both. Here is the list:

C'mon Ricky (@TheAirgunnero ), @Frank in Fairfield , @ThomasT and the gazillions of shooters on here that are better than me...knock my A$S off my little throne!!!
