They are not toys any more i went with a crosman phantom 22 cal and the damn thing shots threw my crossbow target and dint's the hell out of the hard plastic trashcans.
I am fairly sure my ass is grass the ricochets from the trashcan behind the target were pinging off the wife's car parked on the other side of the yard.
Now that i read the instructions i find out they make 2 versions of this gun one that is 450fps for Canada and this one is up to 950fps for the USA.

Yep printed right on the box 950fps maybe i need to start reading before i jump in. that is almost what a 22 short travels at.

LOL

I think we've all been guilty of not reading thoroughly enough from time to time.

A buddy of mine tells the story of shooting his new pellet rifle in the house into a cardboard box leaning against his front door. He pulled the
box away to discover they went right through it and stuck in the door. He had some explaining to do to his wife.......LOL

Here's hoping there are no marks on the car!

Our snow is melting fast so I'm hoping to be able to get down to the range to shoot in the next couple of weeks. I have a scope to mount
in the mean time so I think I'll take care of that this weekend!
