I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed shooting .22 lately! We've got a GOOD place too!...as long as my buddy keeps it bush hogged! It's 300 yards and we put staggered targets every 50 yards. We could probably stretch another 100 out of it, but that would put us close to a guy who has displayed unfriendliness and where we shoot now, he can't come near...not without us telling him to get bent and to go away. :-)

I've been shooting that little Ruger 10/22 Carbine Compact that I got for Christmas. :-) It's a blast! At 200 yards, it's a LOT like .308 at 600 (or so). I NEED to do something about the short stock though...it's way too short for me, but I'm just dealing with it right now. I'll probably also pick up a different barrel for it soon...and then it won't be a "carbine compact" anymore!... but that's O.K. :-)

Steel Match? ...as in plates? The PS90 is an "interesting" weapon... ammo is expensive though. :-)

Absolutely...give me a ring, and we'll go shoot something. :-)

I picked up a Beretta Neos U22 as well. I ended up swapping out my longer barrel with Mrs. Knitebane's shorter one. I put a holo sight on mine and do respectably. It would help if I stuck to one gun.

I don't recall if I told you but I finally found a Remington Model 34. It's a bona-fide squirrel murderer. Did Remington make ANY 34's that didn't shoot well?

We've been doing most of our shooting at PDHSC down on Tryon Road in south Raleigh. It's convenient to my job. On weekends we try to make it out to WT's in Goldsboro. The range there is slightly smaller but very modern and well lit. That's probably a bit of a drive for you though. ;)
