VH>JS>open up with and still hit anything at that range still would be the
VH>JS>10/22 with the new bull barrel.  I haven't yet really run it through

VH>JS>yet, it should be fun though, with the trigger stops in place and more
VH>JS>mass on the barrel, follow up shots should come pretty quick.

VH>I make 11-bull 50ft NRA-type small bore targets, and put that up on the
VH>50 foot line for offhand practice, then put up a squirrel on the 50 yard
VH>line.  A squirrel at 50 yards is a nice change of pace.
The company I used to work for did their own printing, and when they'd do 
a run of something that wasn't right, I'd scavage the stock (90#), 
usually in a bright or neon color, and have them print up a police 
silhouette on the other side.  I've still got several hundred of them 
left, the target is about 1/3 to 2/5 life size, so placing it at 7 yards 
gives me plenty of challenge.  If I can hit it like that, I figure I will 
have no problem hitting a full size at the proverbial 25 feet.  Every now 
and then I treat myself to a life size target and 'show off'.  :-)
