| shooting Finally got warm enough to get out and shoot a little.I dug my 1000yd m60 Marlin out and shot some nice 1" groups.This gun is amazing.It really shoots great.The recoil doesnt bother me much for shooting high velocity long rifles.Of course I dont have a scope,but will have to get one if I shoot longer range.But it did ok at 50yds. sam. |

| You're a real man, Sam. I had to put a brake on mine. Six pounds of lead in the butt (the rifle's, not mine) wasn't enough. Gallery shorts (is anyone but me old enough to remember them?) helped, though. |

| Back in the days when shooting galleries at amusement parks used real .22 rifles, they shot gallery short ammunition. The bullets would disintegrate into dust upon hitting anything hard. The first rifle I fired was one of these amusement park Winchesters. I was ten or eleven years old, and was hooked immediately. I found a club, started shooting smallbore competition, and have been burning powder ever since. |

| .22 shorts I love .22 shorts! they are hard to beat in accuracy in my old Glenfield model 10, on a bench rest just keep shooting a big nasty hole stacking the slugs into a big mass of batterd lead, who can better that at 40 yards with open sights?, stacking lead was only thing they were good for Some buddy's got home sick living in a large urban area and were suffering the big city doldrums, they worked a plan to sneak down to one of the city parks and poach them a Goose for the holiday's so they got a old trusted .22 some shorts and a fishing rod with a rapella they did get one late one night! nobody suspected Foul play, damn lucky they dry picked it behind the Mall in the dumpsters! |
