Went to an indoor range today (normally don't like them, but haven't gone shooting in too long) with my .22 rifle. I have two magazines for the gun, and the protrusion that engages the magazine release snapped off (this is a Thompson/Center .22 Classic fyi). Magazine is no longer held in the gun.
Son of a bitch!
What's worse, I suck at shooting rifles. My shotgun shoots tighter groups for me than my .22.
Note to self: Buy another shotgun, not a centerfire rifle as originally intended.- Show previous comments 1 more

I'm glad I have a huge tract of land for hunting and plinking at my aunt's. I don't usually shoot at paper targets, usually just cans, whatever else and soemtimes coins, usually nickles, dimes and quarters because they are easier to see compared to a penny, unless the penny is exceptionally new.
However, I can consistantly hit multiple targets in sucession (they were not in a row, just randomly strewn about amongst branches and on this old-ass rocking chair) with my Marlin Model 60. The 100+ year old bolt-action .22 my dad has is a pure tack-driver. Beautiful firearm. My uncle once used it to shoot a .22 round from between a tree and he had carried the bullet that was stuck in the casing with him for years until he lost it.
