What a delight shooting an outstanding pistol! Operation is easy, balanced, grips are outstanding --
just can't say enough good things about it. I have included a link to the pic of the final target shot at the range on 28 August 2009. I am very happy with the first time use of my Ruger!

You can't beat those Ruger .22's. I have a MKII and sometimes use it for squirrel hunting. They are accurate

Aha! So you've read the same articles I have about how destructive those critters can be. In many areas squirrel crime is a serious problem. Violent crime and drug abuse are on the rise within their ranks.Vahunter wrote:You can't beat those Ruger .22's. I have a MKII and sometimes use it for squirrel hunting. They are accurate

They are down right mean too. I went to get some pecans and a squirrel already had the tree staked out for himself.zephyp wrote:Aha!

Re: Ruger MKIII Govt Competition Target Pistol
Well, I'm looking now for a place to hunt deer and getting outfitted for the early muzzle loader season. You can bag squirrels at the same time. Young has never had squirrel pot pie and I can make a good one. I'd love to come down and help you clean some of them out.
