I'm Done shooting with HER!
« on: May 16, 2010, 12:04:12 PM »
After upgrading to metal breeches and extended bolts. On our 1377 with stocks. We shot about a hundred pellets each to re-sight in our little Daisy Red Dots.
So we had a little shooting match. I should have put up new cardboard behind the targets the hole would have been a little cleaner.
 My girl was shooting off handed and I was using a rest.
I also noticed that about every other shot she would change sides. One time she would shoot right handed and the next she would shoot left! I asked her what’s was up with that? She says  â€œI can’t tell which way is better”
I’m done shooting with her.  I don’t mind being out shot if the other shooter has to at least strain a little. Ya my score was higher but I was straining and using a rest!

It's a proven fact that women have better hand eye coordination than men.  So technically they have an advantage right from the start.

Well I'll have the advantage in the end I'm going to hone the rifling out of her barrel.

Thats awesome! Only time my old lady even looks at my rifles is when she is giving me the evil eye as I head to the swam or am about to put another grackle into the after life through the computer room window. Should have seen her face when she realized to screen was gone off the window behind her computer. lol  she not so happy.

Tell yours great shooting. Besides honing the barrel you can mix about 4 different brands of pellets in her tine. She will be all over. lol

I have done the pellet swap. She shoots 6.5 grain threw in a couple of 10.4 grains on her. That worked for a while. She is hip to that now. She won’t notice that the barrel is honed. LOL!

she will when there's no compression behind the pellet and they just drop to the floor upon firing.  Then you'll have ruined a perfectly good gun for nothing and you'll probably end up sleeping on the couch for the rest of your life.

I just tell her she shot it out and now its time for that longer barrel upgrade. That will get me off the couch in a couple of days. lol
