    Funny this came up. I just taught my wife to shoot the 9 last Thursday. She "killed" the target silhouette, hit in the nuts and face.

    about 2 years ago I got a savage mkII .22, it was the first time for my wife to even touch a fire arm. She's abetter shot then I am. All I can say is don't piss her off and if you do don't come with in 100 yards of her.

    Nice group! Make sure you keep the rifle aaaallllllllll the way on the other side of the house separate from the ammo. . . it'll give her time to cool off before loading.

    I took her scope right 6 clicks (her group center is about 1/2" left), she should be dead on next range trip. We were going to zero at 50yds, but the wind was so bad today, I just settled on 25yds and let her have fun with it.

    Seriously, one of the reasons I got married is because my wife picked up a 12 ga. pistol grip shotgun for the first time in her life and hit the target dead on. At that moment, I knew she was the one for me...

    Very nice man, certainly don't piss off your wife. Me and my dad took my sis out to the range a couple days before her wedding and taught her how to use a snub-nosed .38 and a little mk2 .22. you know, just in case :P. She's *almost* as good a shot as me hehe.

    Cool, but I'll have to lay low on the gun purchases for awhile. I still haven't shot my remington 870 yet...If I do anything, it'll be some optics for my AR. Got a couple new guns you haven't seen yet Wes...hehe
