Re: Your Best Range Target
Not my targets but they are the ones I am most proud of and the only targets I have kept to date. My daughter used to shoot and hunt with me until she discovered boys and many other distractions at about 11 or 12 years old. Well, at 28 she decide to get her Utah CHL and asked me to take her shooting. These two targets were from Tuesday. By the way...she lost her vision in her right eye when she was 14, which was her strong eye. I was afraid she would have trouble shooting but she could shoot this well from either left or right handed shooting. Darned if I can figure out why. Maybe only having one eye helps your shooting somehow. The distance was only around 7 yards but not bad for the first time shooting in 15 years. It was great. She was giggling and laughing like a school girl every time she hit the mark. She told me later she was worried it might not be fun but now she is hooked and wants to go again. She can out shoot her fiance, her brother...and me. There were other targets and all were very comparable but I kept these because they were her first few rounds..
The smaller holes are from a Browning 22 pistol. The larger holes are from a Glock 26...which she has decided is hers now. Thank God I didn't let her start out with my Kimber!

That is some really good shooting! Especially for first time out in 15 years! You taught her well.

Re: Your Best Range Target
I've posted this all over the place, may as well put it here, too! hahaha

not exactly marksmanship qualifying, but considering it's a tiny little bugger, I was satisfied.

FWIW, IIRC, AFAIK, FTMP, IANAL. YMMV.
