Anyone here target shoot? We “My grl and I” go to the Alabama swamps alot and do this. But I was wondering I’m buying this it’s a Ruger 16" 9mm ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/Buffalony/9MMRUGERPC9GR.gif](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/Buffalony/9MMRUGERPC9GR.gif) Just wondering if anyone here knows if this might be good with distance shooting if I attached a scope. ---

I would think a 22 long would be better than a 9mm for distance, i guess it would work well for 100 yards or so. ---

I shoot trap and some target (handguns only). Not very often, though. ---

i would stick with .22 based on the cost .22 bullets are dirt cheap. my ruger 10/22 is great for target too ---

I would go with a .22 for trap. Really helps improve your skill 🙂 ---
