Spinning plinking target no match for T53

Post by IH424 »

Had some fun this weekend, I think I exceeded the caliber rating on my spinning plink target. 3 holes from
my new T53, one from my M24/47 Mauser. Shooting from about 50 yards away.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

So much for that target, I think that you exceeded it's kinetic energy potential.

Time for retirement of the target at least! :thumbsup:

Well you need one of three things. Lead bullets, more steel plates, or a welder to fill the holes! What fun. And just think what they would do to a engine block. :P

I just bought one of those to try out. I guess I shouldn't use it. Pretty Impressive!
