Missed the morning 50/25 Match but managed to come in the afternoon. It was a beautiful, cool and sunny afternoon at Crooked Oak where I introduced my dear cousins to the joys of iron sight, .22 caliber target shooting at the 23/5 target. This was the very first time either of them tried this game and - as you will see - they did exceptionally well. I was just a smidgen ahead of them. They'll be returning to their home in southern Vermont later this week and, hopefully, be anxious to return next spring for a rematch. I must be an excellent instructor.
The Eley Target ammunition appears to shoot just a bit better in the Model 12 than the CCI SV and the Norma Tac-22 with several impressive groups for each of us.
