Finally got time to shoot. A R9 .22 to start. 100 
What a relief to be shooting. Also shot a HW30 .177. Right now it’s about all I can jack.

I use a cell phone to record with using a short microphone stand with clamps to hold it. The same stand that I clamp my pocket chrony, or flashlight on.

I was thinking that you might weld a bolt to the targets and screw them into the springs.I had these delivered about an hour ago. I’ll weld them up tomorrow. The springs might be too light to weld.View attachment 550927Hope thes work. Crow

That is no good during tornado warnings.
Electrical archs and flashes are the foot prints of those guys.

The last shoot at the 75-yard range. Playing with the Sideshot and an old iPhone with the .20cal 97K BlueLam, during a lul in the wind.

Had a little pop with the Webley Hawk, HW35 (both .177) and Diana 38 firebird. Just checking them over as they're 3 that might be moving on to new pastures shortly.....

Devolope the woods in back, and build a concealed shooting bench.
I have a building with a deck connecting to the house that will do nicely, but will involve some serious work for this 69 year old and his chainsaw.
I have a little over a hundred yards back there to the property line.
I will have to change the backside window to an extra wide one for guests, aswell as build a nice shooting bench.
A lot of work incuding finishing the porch, handicap ramp and skirting.

This is a really nice rifle that's been shooting extremely well.
I've been trying everything that I have pellet wise and I'm finding that so far it's liking the SIG Venom RN 7.87 with 876 fps AVG / 4.5 SD and Good ol USA Crosman 7.9 HP at 864 fps AVG / 12ish SD. Interestingly both are showing extremely tight groups but I'm still indoors due to the cold.
The heavy pellets are next to try and once I get the sights sorted better, I know that this rifle is going to be a favorite.

Just across the basement for primarily for velocity testing.
I can hit a half dollar size swinger repeatedly using what I call a modified bench rest, meaning elbows on the bench, with open sights @ 35 yards so far.
The trigger is pretty good too, lots of adjustment.
More to follow once I get the sights sorted.
Thanks for asking.

I try to get out everyday for at least 50 shots--shot my Rest Best tuned R10--my alltime fav--and spot on at 20 yards--solid, easy--just begs to be shot
Took out the BSA .22 Supersport--stretched her legs with a few HN FTT--was off a little so I went to the indoor range and fixed her up--what a breeze--

Got two heavy duty but economical RWS scope mounts, 1- 1" and 1- 30 MM. Plus four different packages of pellets. 4 tins of one and 4 tins of another of moderate priced 177 pellets for all my pistols. Will see if any of the pistols actually like them. Be Well, Bandito.

We listened to branches and trees breaking for 3 days straight and lived for three days without electricity and said to hell with it. Moved south an hour and a half to Clare and holed up in the Doherty Hotel . Gaylord Michigan looks like a hurricane went through destroying all the trees. We will return when the power is restored and start the long process of cleaning up our home and neighborhood.
