so i stopped by shooter’s world today, as i had the day off, to try out my new ammo, and to join the range as a member. since i go at least twice a month, it made financial sense. i also get 10% off a firearm purchase once a year, and 5% off everything everyday, and 8 free range passes. it was nice checking out today, and only paying $2.38 just for the targets.

 

 

the winchester super x ammo works well. moderate recoil, more accurate than my marksmanship, though i’m still thinking that there has got to be a less expensive jacketed hollowpoint alternative. here’s my best group, if you can call that a group.

 

 

the first few shots are always the best. then i start to anticipate the recoil, and the pistol jumps, thus the two fliers. still, close enough for self defense, and now i have an excuse to get in more practice.

 

 

this is pretty typical for me for my .22. though i normally start to tire after about 1/2 hour, and the groups start to loosen up. this group is 4 magazines, with 10 shots each (one holds 12), for a total of 42 shots.

next on my list of things to get are some zombie targets and an official zombie hunting permit.
