[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3662238, member: 15054"] So I was told anyway. Out shooting with a friend and he told me his daughter and their friends would be joining us later on. They did and I shared some of my guns with them to shoot. I had a 200 yard steel plate set up and they were all having a great time ringing it with my .308. Many of these people never shot a rifle before. I went through the drill of showing them how the trigger works and how to get a good cheek weld etc etc. I got out my 45 Hi-Point pistol and my Taurus PT1911 in 45 ACP also and had one person shoot it along with the Hi-Point and she liked the Hi-Point better. I then began shooting close in steel plate with the HI-Point at swinging targets and orange clays placed on a berm. Here is the lotto ticket I drew. I got froggy and wanted to shoot the steel plate with the 45 acp at 200 yards. Everyone stopped and one person said said are you sure? Yep I think I can hit it as good as I can hit the close targets. First shot range the steel plate. More of a thumpy ring than a loud rifle ring though. Hit it and handed the 45 to someone else to try as I am not stupid enough to take a second shot. :) [/QUOTE]
