Some shooters compete actively in one
of the formal shooting sports, others shoot tin cans. Plinking or
practicing offhand shooting or experimenting with loads and guns or
shooting metal silhouettes or shooting at long range targets or pistol
practice are all shooting sports that folks enjoy. Some like competition,
some abhor competition.
Don't forget what it's about.
