Default Suzie needed a shootin

So out she came with me this afternoon.One of my young fella's wanted to come so Ibagged up the Marlin .22 as well.

So here's the setup. TC Renegade .50 cal (Suzie), 90 gr 3F Goex, CCI No 11 Primers (very old), 240 gr Buffalo Ballets and 240 gr .452 dia Hornady XTP Mag w/ Hornady High Pressure Black Sabot (I think that's what the are (sabots)), range 35 yds, shooting sticks sitting in my favourite folding lawn chair, Temperature 32'f, winds calm, mostly sunny.

Shots 1 & 2 are the ballets. Not too impressed with their grouping so I switched over to the XTP's.
Shot 3 is my first shot with the XTP's, so I adjusted my point of aim to block out most of the black and just leaving a thin strip on top of my sight.
Shots 4-9 were for effect.
Shot 10 was Junior shooting at the wrong target. lol



So can someone tell me why I have let this rifle collect dust for so long???[&:]

I'm sorry Suzie. I won't do that again.

Here's Johnny's target when he wasn't shooting at mine. lol
The wild ones are freehand standing and the big hole is sitting using my sticks while I was reloading.
