I shot a fireball
Posted: Tue Jul 04, 2006 2:51 pm
Hello all,
I thought that some of you might be interested to hear that I had the opportunity to fire a fireball last weekend. I had never shot a gun before that point in my life.
At 40 yards, with 5 shots I hit the dead center of the target 3 times.
There is quite a kick from it, but nothing I couldn't handle. One thing that stood out was the deafening boom emmitted from the gun as compared with other rifles that I shot.
I know that the target was stationary, but it was a mighty accurate weapon, even with me firing it.
My friends step dad was the one that took me shooting. He told me that it was accurate within 150 yards.
It was a fun gun to fire I must say. I took home a bullet and a casing. I have some photos of me firing the weapon, I will post them if anybody wants to see them.
