For those of you out there in cyber-land who know us, you know that we love our guns. I always wanted to learn to shoot when I was younger, but I never really got the chance. When I met Trey, I quickly realized that he was a gun nut. He can't sit still to read a page in a novel, but put a gun magazine in his hand and he is enthralled for hours. And now, so am I.One of our favorite pastimes is to go to the gun range for target practice. Since we had the day off, Trey suggested we go waste some ammo. What a great plan, babe! :) I got a new Ruger Mark III for Christmas, so I was anxious to put it to the test. Let me just say, I'm in lurve! It shoots like buttah...
We shot several hundred rounds today, alternating between the .22 and a few other guns. While the Ruger is definitely the one to shoot rapidly for target practice, the .357 is my absolute FAVORITE to shoot. It's so much fun. You just feel powerful; like you can take on the world. Love it. 
To the right, you'll see one of our targets. Trey's shots were the two on the left and the center one. I had the two on the right. The upper right is my .22 grouping, with shots from the .357 is on the bottom right. I am so pleased with my pattern. I was all over the place when I first started shooting about a year and a half ago. This was around 10 yards away and I am finally seeing some control in my shots. I can't wait to see how I continue to improve. One day, it'll be all bullseyes! ;)
