I don't normally shoot at seven yards, but what the hell... These were 42 grain hollowpoints out of my Ruger Mark III pistol, shooting offhand. The suppressor was attached, and it carries a lot of powder down the barrel, but not so much with a rifle. I can do better, but I was shooting quickly, for me. Five shots in eight seconds...I don't do that, usually. |

Since you like bottles, 5 shots into 5 half liter bottles would be a nice drill. They start shaving your time down. Mix it up by putting them at irregular distances apart and shoot them out of order. |

Mix it up by putting them at irregular distances apart and shoot them out of order. That's sort of what I've been doing...I've come down from two liter to just over one liter bottles... ![]() I'd really like to set up a 200 yard range like Hickock45 has, but not way out in the Shenandoah Valley. Takes too long to get there. I like shooting "gongs," bottles, et cetera, a lot more than printed targets. One of my buddies shoots the flames (via blow by) off candles. He's half my age and sees twice as well. ![]() At 7 yards the stubby 200 ml bottle is probably the most appropriate. If you were closer I would save you some. Set up 5 of those and try to get out in 4 seconds. That will get your adrenalin up. I really like moving stuff tho. I think it comes from my skeet shooting. I am really thinking about getting some bird shot for my .38 or my .45 and trying it the next time the electrical guys shoot. They want me to handicap myself somehow anyway.. The competition is basically shooting station 6 low house shots. (fixed thrower off to your right, crossing and going away) It is actually my worst station but I am good enough to win when I play. I have never tried it but it might be fun with a handgun. You are going to have to get on it fast, you can't let it flatten out and run. Shoot it more like a station 8 low. |

I just shot at close distance (for me) as a lark. I really enjoy shooting at a minimum of 25 yards. My personal goal is to put six rounds from the same load from my .357 MAG revolver into a 4" circle at 25 yards. I do pretty well with two liter sodapop bottles at that distance and shorter distances. The easiest "shooter" I have is the Ruger Mark III, especially since I send the whole kit and kaboodle out to Volquartsen for the "full treatment." It was a good pistol right from Ruger, but now it is just incredible. It's not a Volquartsen Scorpion, but, then, I don't have $1300 tied up in it. I'm thinking of replacing the S&W M&P 15-22 I just sold with a CZ bolt action .22LR. |

It's good to be able to shoot at that range if the ****ed off Pomeranian is already on top of you and going for the throat. |
