Oh, but if we pay a greatly overinflated and artificial price, we can buy a 30 round magazine made nearly 20 years ago. You know, because 20 year old magazines are far less deadly than new ones...
OldNFO,
Exactly! I can't want for him to move up to centerfire so the *ping* is more pronounced.
ZerCool,
Check out the MGM autopoppers. For under $100, you get the same target shown in the video (on the right) which has withstood several thousand hits of .22LR with only a quick Krylon job needed to restore it to new... :)
I notice the pings come closer together the more he shoots. He's headed in the right direction!
Must be nice to shoot at a range that allows steel targets.
Did you record that with your phone? I noticed the sound didn't seem to stay muted for very long after each report. In some shooting videos on Youtube it takes the sound a half a second to come back up to normal volume.
I know that steel targets are good for a beginner and I wish my range had them. Does your range allow water bottles or clay pigeons? When I teach new shooters I start with the shoot N C targets because plinking is only allowed at 50 yds

Open Invitation for New Shooters
Just want to extend an open invitation to all potential new shooters in the Northern Virginia area. If you have never shot a firearm, or would like to get back into the shooting sports, or are an accomplished shooter who'd like to try something in my arsenal, give me a shout.
New shooters get range time, targets, gun use and ammo on me. I've even got extra eye and ear protection - all you have to do is show up.

I counted 30 rounds. Thought you fellows in Mass could only be trusted with 10.
Very nice! The 'ringing' of steel is instant feedback, and FUN too!
That first *TING* made me grin. I need to get a few plates for outdoor .22 plinking.
