Introduction to Steel Plates

[scooterbear]

Here is my son (age 11) shooting a P22 at steel plates. This was the first time that he shot plates and he really enjoyed it. He went though several boxes of 22 ammo.

I liked this picture that caught the brass and smoke just as he shot the gun.

Awesome, Can't wait to take my boy shooting. Another couple of years of waiting and collecting ammo I guess.

Looks like fun, can't wait to get my little guy shooting...Not a bad looking steel setup either.

I really envy you if that's your backyard.

Steel is a lot of fun, much more than paper. That report of a "ping" is so rewarding!

I'll be picking up a few sets of 1/2" AR500 steel plates in the morning. Can't wait

We were at our local gun range, about a 20 minute drive from our house. We can shoot in our back yard out to about 60 yards, but no steel.

Here is a picture (taken with our game camera) from this morning's squirrel hunt. He was shooting a custom 10/22.

Great photograph with the squirrel, reminds me of....hmmmm....me when I was that age years ago....we won't get into just how many years. I was the proud owner of a brand new Marlin 39 my dad gave me, which I still have today.
