Ok, we went a little crazy... We rented a gun called a S&W 500... That's 500 as in 0.500 inches! It shoots a shell the is half an inch in diameter and over an inch and a half long!

This target is my first 5 shots at 30 feet! The grid is a one inch spacing. You can also get an idea of the size of the hole it makes too!

In the 10 minutes before leaving for church, Johnny figured out how to drag and drop pictures into his Science Fair report. He went on to read the text and drag in pictures for 3 more steps of his experiment. "Don't worry, I got it - Dad". :)
