I took my daughter to the range today for some target practice. Sorry, no pictures but we did have a lot of fun. My son decided to spend the day with his girlfriend instead of shooting with us. So I got to spend some 1 on 1 time with my daughter. We took the Ruger 10/22, Ruger 22/45, Ruger LCP, Ruger SR1911 and a Nagant revolver. I had not shot the Nagant and really wanted to see what it would do.
I have a membership at a local indoor range Top Gun Shooting Sports. So we packed up the truck and headed there to get a lane. Surprisingly they were full. All 15 lanes were rented and there were 2 reservations in front of us, but we only had to wait about 10 minutes until a lane freed up for us.
My daughter shot 300 rounds through the Ruger 10/22 and 160 rounds through the Ruger 22/45. We split a box of 50 PPU 7.62x38 in the Nagant revolver. My daughter had a pretty hard time with the Nagant's stiff trigger, even shooting it in single action. But I found it to be pretty darn accurate. I was surprised how well it grouped my shots at 15 yards. Next up was the LCP. I had not shot it in a while so I put a 50 round box of Estate ammo through it. I don't normally use Estate, but its what was in stock at the range. It cycled good and shot strong so I will buy it if I find it in stock somewhere. Last but not least was the SR1911. I put 50 more rounds through it for a total of 150 rounds since I bought it. This is a very nice shooting gun and I am glad I bought it.
That was pretty much our day. 2 hours of shooting, cost us about $30 and we had fun.
