We shot Hornaday 9mm hollow points out of Ruger and Sig pistols, as well as a Ruger PC-9 rifle, at watermelons this past Saturday from 60 yards.
The watermelons actually exploded upon impact. I was in shock as to how dramatic it was.
It was a good day.

Is that the rifle that you restored and did a thread in a while back?

I've reported you to the game commission. I'd bet my last dollar that you haven't bought your "heavy appliance" stamp!!!!! Oh, and nice rifle. Bet it is a blast to shoot!

Ever notice how you read something and get a specific idea in your head? I thought you were going to shoot at a washer ( fastener , not an appliance ) with that "old weapon".

Still mighty impressive how you kicked that's appliance's ass
