Middle TN Meet & Shoot *** MAY 16th 2009 ***

Glad you all had a good time.

My daughter, my boss and I all had a great time at Gallatin Gun Club. We had about 25 guns between the two of us (boss and I), and those kept us busy for about 5 1/2 hours. Far longer than we had expected.

By far, the most fun was when my daughter finally got the nerve to shoot an AR. It only took about 15 seconds to talk her into it.

There was a guy who had hit AR sighted in at 200 yards, and my precious baby girl hit the gong at 200 yards 4 out of 4 times. Talk about excited! I'm not sure who was more tickled, her or myself. It was great. It didn't take but about 1/2 a second for her to add an AR to her Christmas list.

I'm really gonna have to remember my darn camera. These are definitely memories I will cherish for a very long time. I just wish I had the pictures to go with them.

My boss brought out his new Beretta Xtrema2 12ga. with the Kick-Off system. I was really looking forward to shooting it, because it supposedly has amazing recoil reduction. I'm here to tell you, THAT IS A MAJOR CROCK OF DOO-DOO!

I watched the Youtube video, and the guy was shooting one-handed and behind the back. Shooting two at a time, and all that other crazy stuff. That guy must have been using some very light loads, because with the 3 1/2's we were shooting, I never want to see another shotgun for a very long time. Talk about a bruised shoulder.

We were expecting the Xtrema2 to be a real pleasure to shoot, but that couldn't have been anything further from reality. I've shot plenty of 3 1/2" shells, and this was no more pleasant than any other time. Complete BS!

Even though I don't dare try to figure out how much money in ammo went down range, we had a great time.

Anyway, it wasn't the TGO Meet-N-Shoot, but thought I'd share anyway.

It shoots far better than I can. The CBOB is officially my most accurate handgun. That thing is beyond sweet, and has an amazing trigger. Sooooo crisp!

Thanks again for the ammo. I owe you one. Big time.

Thats great Im glad to hear it. I was glad to help you out with the ammo.
