The .45 ball (singular) I fired so far went through 4 heavy duty boxes and knocked a divot out of the plywood backstop. Oops. 1" right/low @ 20 feet so good enough. It'll put the clay practice ammo in the same hole from 20 feet but they're all over the paper at 20 yards so not stabilized real well. Oddly enough, the skwrls boogie it out of the yard when I'm anywhere around now. Haven't fired the first shot at one.

We're in town right on top of our neighbors, firing firearms and air guns is illegal and the skwrls been slaughtering Mrs. Geno's raised bed and container garden. The sapsuckers ate 40 jalapenos - I couldn't believe it but I saw the little dude doing it. Have rat traps in the veggies but none caught yet.

If you have access to lead shot, you can load several in the pouch at a time. Gives a little more margin for error. Plain old BBs will work as well

use 36 cal balls, higher velocity, better distance.

You need a wrist rocket.

Several years ago I bought my young daughter a sling shot. She proceeded to immediately shoot a steel shot into my computer monitor.

Lesson learned - No shooting in the house!

Her new super heavy bands. What a beast. She sends .45 round balls through a soda can so fast it doesn't fall over. They don't shoot the light ammo worth a crap.
