From a rest position it was       easy for me. The weapon was an M-14 with a 20 round magazine. In a prone       rest position they were great rifles. A scope is almost too much at 20 yards.       I haven't fired a heavy caliber rifle in many years. The last one I owned was       an 8mm Mauser. A .22 rifle could probably do a head shot at around 150 or        200 yards, though.       --- SBBSecho 2.27-Win32        * Origin: Telnet://valhalla.synchro.net - Richmond, Virginia (1:275/93)    |
