Oh, hell, if we're counting guns I actually have something to contribute besides being a giant thudding target for Ard's shinai. :)

I used to be a decent shot at skeet, and am a pretty good shot without being seriously in training about it- good enough that I trust (and have trusted) my use of them against live targets. Of the shots I'm most proud of, I managed a 125 yard shot in heavy fog on a pretty big wild hog a couple years ago that severed the spine right behind the skull. More amusing, a few years before that, I managed to kill two smaller hogs on a single shot. The second hog walked up next to the first one as I was lining up the shot, I figured what the hey. .308 in both cases.

My first was a ~40 yard shot on an 8-point whitetail with a .54 black powder rifle when I was...~13? Love muzzleloaders. :)
