    Out again with the old trainer. 50 metres.
    Only problem was light: my pupils started going mad every now and then. But still very satisfying shooting.
    With the cheapest ammo I could buy: Geko Semi-Auto.

    They shoot great. They're so heavy in most cases they sit steady and .22 ammo is accurate enough usually no matter how cheap it is.

    When I was first learning, my dad made my brother and I take the NRA hunter safety course. Then we used our own savings to buy 20ga bolt action shotguns. He was 12 and I was 13. We kept our guns and ammo in our rooms. Yes, we lived in a rural area. Can you imagine someone doing that today?
    I always take a .22 to the range. They are a nice way to finish the day.

    Had the No2 mk IV out the other day. Using Eley subsonics, no hearing protection required! Very fun. The Cooey sight works well.
