A sport I'd like to get into is metallic shooting, both handgun and rifles. I read a book about it last year and started doing informal shooting of said on our home range. There is something strangely satisfying about watching the little chicken, turkey, pig, and ram figures get knocked over.
Alas, 2018, though a mixed bag, largely turned into a dumpster-fire of long hours and a parade of family matters, so any real progress was shelved. I did enjoy a blisteringly hot August afternoon shooting with my better half and knocking over the metal figures many times; she with a Walther in 9㎜ and yours-truly with a S&W in .44 Magnum.
Anyway, I thought I'd toss it out there: anyone active in this discipline? Any tips? What firearms are you using and care to share pictures of said?
Thanks!
