    Just joking of course but I'd probably have just as much luck doing this as I would duplicating IdahoLewis' 1200 yard muzzy shot. I just want to see how many of you will look at this thread and keep the forum alive!

    500 yards is just a chip shot for IdahoLewis and IdahoRon even after having a few pops !

    Shooting pop cans with a slingshot is just not right. That's what pop guns are for.
