Might be dangerous to have a cat near Younggun"s place.

My daughter has an affinity to most animals (except squirrels, deer, and certain other animals I've told her are mean, didn't work on for cats) so I risk her wrath if I harm them. However the ones that have wondered in have eventually had a run in with our dogs soooo.....

I never said they were safe, only pointing out that they are mostly safe from me.

Does anyone have any experience with trying to stop a standard .22lr? I am wondering how many inches of phonebook will it take to stop it. Opinions welcome.

I wouldn't trust it as a backstop for more than a few shots. It's going to "wear out" very quickly. It's also on the small side, so you'd have to be extremely careful.

450 pages is no where near enough.

 

[Younggun]

Hole in your wall?

You could probably get a small railroad tie and use it as a backstop. Same thing as shooting into a tree. I'm heading up to Hicksville in the morning...gimmie some ideas of things to take to shoot

 

[Younggun]

Anything you got laying around.

 

[Sugar Land]

I had a piece of 1/2" lexan behind the phonebook. Did not even scratch the lexan.

 

[Younggun]

That's awesome

I've got a lava lamp that I've thought would be fun to watch it explode with a round going through it...I just don't wanna clean up the mess!

I have some Aguila .22 colibri powder less rounds that made it 100 pages. Quieter than my pellet gun.

Random thought, that would be cool as hell to watch in high quality slow motion but it would have to be low light and turned on lol.

It'll poke through several sheets of plywood pretty well.
