new interest in shooting paint balls

[remtom1200]

I havn't been on here much lately but have been doing some shooting. After a visit from my nephew and watching him shoot his cool looking paintball marker i have gained a new interest in paintballs. He spewed a hopper full at some random targets surprisingly accurate at times but other times the balls just exploded on the rocks or bounced off into the woods. The next day I developed a new pleasure with what I found on the ground(unbroken balls) and now my new targets are paintballs stuck on a barbed wire fence! I just love seeing those little balls vapourize when hit at 55-60 yrds with 18gr jsb's from my at44...lol. Does anyone else use these little targets for hunting practice?

Heck yes! Was blasting them in the garden (50yards) the other night with the LW/qb79.

Also built this for use with paintballs....have interchangeable "kill zone" plates made from 1/4" steel...5/8", 3/8" and 1/4"...1/4" messes with yer mind.

Thanks for the picture, gave me an idea! The Hatsan is amazingly accurate at longer ranges.... but 1/4'' holes are extremely tempting at 30 yards i'm thinking

I have to admit to being a paintball shooter myself. We keep a goodly supply around for critter control... but they are just so much fun to shoot.
