Last night, my brother and I shot his 03-A3. We shot at a small pumpkin, and a paper target he drew. My brother shot one at the pumpkin, then I did. I shot at the pumpkin, then the target. In the pic below, there are two shots on the pumpkin, and one shot on the paper.  The shot on the paper is mine.
My dad made some loads for it, that feel like you're shooting a .22 caliber. He used a 180 grain cast lead bullet, and 11 grains of pistol powder. 7,000 grains = one pound. It is a fun way to shoot an old military rifle, without hurting your shoulder. It doesn't hurt your ears if you don't wear hearing protection. I shot a few shots, then got too cold and went inside. =)
It feels a lot different than the gun that I shoot!
