We bought some of Crosman's SSP - High Velocity-Lead Free Pellets, to hear what breaking the sound barrier with a pellet rifle was like. Sounds similar to a rim fire 22 short. Alas accuracy. Now we are going see what kind of damage it can do. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1TpJowHvu8
Prior to work, I was spending some time on the deck having fun with one of my air rifles. The Remington Summit in a .177 (1100 FPS)
Plinking at targets 30-40 yards away.

While having some fun with my Remington Summit .177 (air rifle), I decided to try some "Long Range" shooting, in a standing/off hand position.
Target is Guinness can, 60 yards away.
What makes this truly funny, and cool for me, the trigger on the Remington Summit is the WORST I have ever experienced. Similar to dragging two cinder blocks across each other. The rifle on the other hand is very nice and powerful.
I placed tow shots downrange and heard one strike, the second, I figured missed, until I went and looked. Result - 1 entrance hole, two exits holes.
Much laughter was had.

Just a silly couple of moments showing "Effects" of my ISSC Mk-22LR against a old frying pan.
We are continuing to "just play" with .22LR ammo and Red Dot.
Shooting the frying pan at a distance of 75 meters.
Next up, mount a scope and see how accurate the .22LR is and really refine the choice of ammo.
Happy Shootin Everyone

I like the look of my picnic/shooting table with some Air Rifles toys, so I decided to record and share with the FUN LOVING People in Air Gun Community.
Crosman, Classic .22 (sub 500)
Crosman, SilverFox .177 (1200 FPS ;-)

A small video dedicated to the hard working FireFighters, Flight Crews and Support Staff involved in Forest Fire Suppression.
This fire was caused by a lightning strike that spread quickly, due to winds, on Blackcomb Mtn, one of the venues for the the Vancouver Winter Olympics.
Aircraft seen here are Boeing 107 (Vertol) and Boeing 234 (Chinook). An AS 350 is parked at WHP with a Suppression Crew.
Cockpit view is of a Bell 206.
Correction: 30 July 2009 was actual strike date. A couple of photos are from a follow on operation, were I grabbed the date.
Goin' Rogue Productions is just me.. thought it looked cool
