I thought this would be a fun topic... I thought this section would be the best place to ask the question:
What was the best shot you ever made?
(Please try to keep the lies down to
a minimum! -smile- )
My best shot was actually with PELLET rifle.
I like to shoot a pellet rifle because it is VERY CHEAP to shoot and helps me keep the fundamentals of shooting fine-tuned. Anyway, I was target shooting with it out in the woods and a dragon-fly landed on a stump about 30 feet away. I aimed at the HEAD - and shot it off... the body dropped to the top of the stump as proof. Seriously!
My best shot with a regular weapon? That would probably be a rattle snake curled up on a log across the river, about 40 yards away. Shot with a .22 (with a scope). When I shot, I didn't even see it move, maybe twitch, nothing more. I thought I missed. After looking long and hard through binoculars, I saw a hole through its head. I must have severed the brain stem or something.
