falcongit 242 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 try polos the mint with the HOLE next time gary you wont need to drill lol... symon Quote Link to post
tegater 789 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Hope you have a steady hand while drilling Even more testing, a polo with a patch stuck over the back of it, placed on a piece of wood. Put the pellet through the hole without breaking the mint! We do a similar thing with centrfire rifle at 100m with a cd/dvd, with a patch over the hole. Quite a good little test, belive me.

festa 206 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 polos sound fun as well shoot the hole but not the mint cheers lads atb gary Quote Link to post
Webby1 34 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Nice Gary ...but next time remove the mint from mouth before giving us the commentary ;) Quote Link to post
Phantom 631 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 While you were drilling, I was thinking any second now "He' gonna squeal!" Tony Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Great idea Gary buddy They will be real testing targets at 75 metres due to there size. The targets i used are 40mm in diameter, not sure what a extra strong is but i reckon maybe half of or 3/4 the size of mine. I think that at the meet Im orgainising for the summer up at mine, we will have to have the extra strong mint challenge. 5 mints hanging on wires and metres, £1 a go for 10 shots allowed, winner takes the credit of being the mint challenge champion and Treats4BritishTroops gets all the proceeds Si 2 Quote Link to post
Phantom 631 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 And the Ants and other insects will be made up with all the smashed up minty sugar (if anyone other than you can do it) lol Tony Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Who did you get to shoot the mints, because your not that good Quote Link to post

matt_hooks 188 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Did you have to get Shannon to shoot them for you Gary? It's a good idea, but I like my mints too much to shoot them! Quote Link to post
Phantom 631 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) Si, the luck Gary's been having with his shooting of late, I was expecting the daft bugger to drill through into his finger. You okay buddy? Tony Edited October 31, 2011 by Phantom 1 Quote Link to post
