Just for fun we tried the Metallic silhouette one time and gave it up. The wad cutters bounced back and hit the person doing the shootin , myself and some others on the firing line.
We were shooting ourselves when doing the point and shoot at 15 yards :evil:

You need heavier loads

When we used to shoot field pistol the chickens were at 25 metres , pigs at 50 M , the turkeys at 75 and the Rams at 100 , that was shot standing , the Metallic Silhouette match was shot laying down with chickens at 50 M , pigs at 100 M , Turkeys at 150 M and Rams at 200 , I was only ever a good B grade Silhouette shooter but a fair A grade IPSC shooter ,

POTTER VALLEY
Woman tries to kill mice, shoots self

A Potter Valley woman wounded herself and a man July 3 while attempting to kill mice with a .44-caliber Magnum revolver, according to the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office.

The woman, 43, had drawn the gun from a holster under her left arm, intending to shoot mice scurrying across the floor of a small travel trailer on Highway 20 in Potter Valley, according to the Sheriff's Office.

The revolver instead slipped from her hand and fired as it struck the floor, according to the Sheriff's Office.

The bullet went through the woman's right kneecap, then hit keys hanging on the belt loop of a 42-year-old man in the trailer, officials said. The bullet glanced off the keys and tore a hole in the man's pants.

The bullet grazed the man's groin before stopping in his coin pocket, where it was recovered for evidence, according to the Sheriff's Office.

The names of the shooting victims were not released.
