Hello everyone,
OK here I am in my shop minding my own business in the peace and quite and shooting a wide verity of paper targets and having fun. Just as I get ready to pull the trigger on target #4 I hear this loud “clang-clang-bang” and it scared to poot out of me
. Earlier that morning I had moved some stuff on a top shelf to get another item and somehow left a half empty gallon can unbalanced near the edge. Well it fell to the floor just as I pulled the trigger and I blew the shot 
Range: Indoors at 15-feet
Pistol: .22Cal Custom PP-800 R Pistol/Carbine w/full Buck Rail AR Conversion
Scope: UTG Bug Buster 3-9x32
Pellets: AA Accuracy Plus 13.43gr
FPS: 429
FPE: 5.5
Position: Bench w/ TPR Front and rear Bag

Had to shovel the driveway today then took a little rest and went to the basement to shoot a few. Picked up the FWB 300 S and shot a horrible group. Struggled with the weight today. So I tried the old RWS 45. 10 meters standing off hand 5 shots. Way better than I shot the 300S.

Testing several different 18s in my (new to me) Taipan Vet Std 22. Also running some crono strings too. It’s a shooter and I’m very happy with it.
I just noticed that my pencil doesn’t have spell check because I misspelled Taipan.
Taipan Veteran
AA .22 18.0gr
Shot count: 47
Low: 884 FPS
Hi: 891 FPS
Avg: 887 FPS
Spread: 7 FPS
STD Dev: 1.6 FPS

Early morning shoot from December 30th with thick, but verrying fog because of a light breeze from the left moving it.
I put up the paper to check poi because I couldn't hit a Crazzy Eight paddle like it was doing on the 27th? These target are very close to the size of a Crazy Eights paddle.
5 shots each except when I loose count
The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Congratulations on the new .22 std Vet! Looks like a shooter as all Taipans are! Enjoy shooting it!

I took a break and let "Annie Oakly" shoot. I thought I'd give her a handicap shooting red dot with no rear rest - just hands.
Well, Here's the card after she did a bit of practice to get a feel for this style of shooting.

I found that their tendency is to lay claim to the guns that they do well with. There's two ways to look at that. You lost a gun, and now it needs replacing.

The first time I took her shooting was on our honeymoon back in 1966. She's been a natural great shooter ever since — even with shotgun, which I don't do well with at all. She asked me if I was going to shoot and I said no, this was her day. She told me I was afraid I couldn't do as well. She's right!Hello @rsfrid
Well I recognize "Annie" and it comes as no surprise that she can out shoot you any day of the week. So you try and put an unfair handicap on her, but that didn't work out too well did it

Nice cards @.20calguy , @ThomasT and @rsfrid . Mrs Ross can shoot but shame on you for not letting her use your rear rest.
