A sport of target shooting with a handgun

Instead of having lunch, I would nip for a short shooting session at the shooting club. Target shooting with a Walther .22 target pistol calms me and is a great stress reliever. Below was my gear: Czech bullets, German gun and a Japanese watch for company.

At 15 meters, if you are using a basic .22 pistol, its very hard to get a good grouping. However, with a specialised .22 target pistol that comes with a very heavy barrel and ergonomic stock, it is easy. I am able to put in a nice 4 inch grouping (i.e. all shots landing withing the white circle).

Top Shot in the making

Since nine months of actively taking up the sport, my eldest has progressed far. All the equipment sponsored by the National Sports Association. Here she is taking a shot using a .22 rifle.

Her Anschutz rifle.

Her first medal in a competition, a Silver.

Then followed by two Gold medals!

Below is one of them.
