Default RE: Took the kids to the range.

Thanks for the well wishes, we will be happy if we see any deer, last year we didn't see any in the area we were hunting.

Those clay pigeons do get real small at 200 yards. I was barely able to even see them unless the sun came out andhit them justright. Even then they were like pin dots. It took a while to verify I was shooting at the one I told my son to watch through his scope to see how close I was hitting. They were placed at about 18" intervals but at that range it was tough to tell which one I was aiming at. I was happy to be getting within 4" of them. I'm glad an elk is much larger than those pigeons, if I get a shot at one.
