Man... that is such an awesome idea! I can't wait to get out to the range and start shooting. Wow I miss it!

Usually, I'm at an indoor range. Well, it was pretty fun hearing the bullets tumble as they hit the ground. The "PINGS" and whistles they made were a hoot!

Anyway, being one that's accustomed to shooting paper, I forgot how much fun it is to blast at cans. I also got one of those "spinning spoon" type .22 targets, and blasted it from about 30 yards.

The most fun, however, was the dove decoy. Since I couldn't shoot my .40 S&W at the "spinning spoons" and my buddy couldn't shot his .44Mag at them, we bought one arrow @ Walmart and one dove decoy. WEll, surprisingly, the decoy lasted all afternoon......plus it was fun to shoot.

Here's the carnage......

That's easy. He was made into a target, and he's a shooter.

It's thoughts like this that make me want to get my firearms together and hit the range.

Default Handy target
The 10/22 is a verstaile rifle. One of the neatest alterations I have seen was in the gunshop in Tombstone, AZ. They had a Ruger 10/22 with a fiberglass shell that made it look like a German WWII MG42. I would really have loved to have gotten my hands on it.

I want one! I'll call it the Dove of Piece, as in, "You want a piece of me?" rofl

I know, I know, I have a sick sense of humor at times.

Or you could also call it "Pieces of Dove".
