Great Note

Got a mail from Hugh's Smart Phone. I couldn't pick up the enclosed pic though, without having to load some new program.

Copy:

Gary,

See if you can view this link. It is my daughter shooting your rifle for the first time. The steel targets are swinging at 100 yards. We were shooting the 450 gr slugs sized to .464 at 2900 psi. On paper grouping 2" at 100 yards. Did not chrony this load yet, but it is pretty accurate. If sighted in at 50, it is dropping about 8" at 100. I have it zeroed at 100 yards. Getting about 50 shots from full charge on my AirHog 88 cu ft tank. Fantastic fun. Have not worked on the Bishops much yet. Do they suck less air? Everyone at the range wants to shoot it! And I let them! winking smiley

Hugh

End Copy.

Wonderful to know the gun is being used, and enjoyed! Thanks Hugh.

Maybe I can direct his pics to you. It's an issue between his smart phone and my woodburning laptop, I think.

The little video is posted on the Apple, MobileMe site. Generally just needs Quicktime to play.

Hello Hugh,

I have Quicktime. Thanks. It was asking me to sign up and download the MobileMe thingie.

If you have a url, we'd enjoy seeing it.

Glad you are shooting!

I expect photobucket can handle a quicktime file. Just need to figure out how to get it there...

Hello Scott,

You will need Quicktime to view it. That's usually available free - I used to use www.tucows.com I don't even know if it is still on-line.

Neat video though. Hugh's daughter does a fine job of ringing the steel at 100 yards with her first shot! Nice smile from the young lady.

Great to see the kids out at the range. Seems many of Barnes' owners have kids who are responsible and enjoy sharing the experience with their family. We've always had a great turnout at the shoots with the youth. We have even had a few trophies leave with them! They seem to gravitate toward the bigbore guns rather quickly. Keep up the good work parents.
