Sure Shot Mcgee

Just for the record I am shooting down at about a 30 degree angle at the pond . The banks are 3-4' above the water and downrange are mature trees as in woods for about 100 acreas. They are my trees, my woods, and given the above I am not worried about skipping bullets being dangerous to anyone.

I do agree that a 2" moving target at 150 yds requires better marksmenship than I currently possess. I shot on the US Army (45 cal) pistol team and was expert sharpshooter in 2nd half of my BCT in the Army but at 67 with flosterw and a stigmatisim in my shooting eye, I no longer see like I used to and clearly do not shoot the same.

Based on most of the very informative feedback here I have set some traps.

Thanks again to everyone who has tried to help me, the Blog is excellent.
