Bullseye

This is a very pretty target. I shot it in Timed Fire this past Sunday and decided to bring it home.

In Sunday’s NRA Registered Bullseye 2700 at the Phoenix Rod & Gun Club, John Zurek raised the mark on three National* records in the Civilian, Outdoor category:

One pass, fourteen fail and 985 to go. Cleaned for an extra hour to reach a semblance of shiney, this old brass sat in someone’s to-be-reloaded pile for years slowly growing cruft.

She’s 100%. That’s 100% in function, appearance, parts and on the target.

I bought my first long gun Saturday. I was looking for something appropriate on which to teach our youngest granddaughter who is nearing the point where she’s mature enough – with supervision – to learn to shoot a firearm.

Is it one? Zero? Many? I’ve asked a number of shooters what’s going on inside their head when they shoot.

I’m an “Expert Outdoors” shooter. That’s my NRA classification. It is based on how I shoot at official events.

So far. But they say they’re like Accidental Discharges: If you haven’t had one yet, just wait.
