Well, my wife may think I'm wasting my time, but this sure has been a good way to learn about the movie editing software that came with my computer. Today I moved my targets to 20yds so I wouldn't have to worry about missing anything.(lol) First up: 10 steel targets -5 are 1 inchers and 5 are 2 inchers. Then we try 15 plastic golf balls (I originally had 16 of them set up there, but the breeze got one of them). Then a shot of the FX Monsoon action in action. And for the grand finale, 16 paintballs get busted! Hope you get a kick out of it (you know I did! lol)...
Good clean fun, and yes I do feel like I'm 12 years old again!(LOL) The steel and the plastic golf balls were mere child's play. But you'll notice I did have to slow down and actually take aim on those paintballs. Don't want to be missing any of those! (LOL). The shot of the monsoon action showed me my trigger technigue needs some help. Did you notice my middle finger flapping like crazy? That example of horrible technigue could very well be why my groups with this gun aren't the best... Have to work on that...
Scotio Leoni LOL (Sergio Leoni the spaghetti western director) Now all you need is the Clint Eastwood music in the back ground. Scott can I send you a dozen eggs? I only know how to shoot them not film them Great movie mr director.
Makes me want one real bad, but a pickup has gotta come first. Scott, I get my license in October, we should get the guys here from CO together for a shoot now that I have my R9(came a few weeks ago). BTW, Ennio Morricone for the Clint Eastwood soundtracks .
Maybe a SWA? I plan on goin for grouse and ptarmigan also. I will keep looking for land or a place...also, could you email me? I've lost your addy. In my signature.
That one steel re-setting target was made by Ralph Brown of "RB Grips"

...its really cool. Its motorized with batteries and a remote control. Knock-em all down, then press the remote and the motor stands them back up. Ralph made a bigger one with legs and a stand and everything for himself, and I talked him into making me a smaller one (inbetween making hundreds of crosman pistol grips)... Ralph is DA MAN!
Is the only place I can get one of these AOA? Im sort of undecided if I am going to get a new springer or a new PCP and the Monsoon was on the top of my PCP list but I realy hate to buy something if I can only get it in one place. Would probably drop it down to the second or third place on my list actually. Theres gotta be at least one other place, no?
The Brits will really flip over this one. It's worse than Lamaar's

so they can do something they can't do at home
