Indoor as in your house?  Trap?
No...

at the club I belong to. We shoot in the NH pistol League. Bullseye...one hand...50 feet...at a tiny target.

I shoot...poorly. ;)

It's been a while since I've shot or bought supplies to load but I think I was under .15 for 9mm and under .10 for .45

yeah, prices have gone apeshit in the last 5-6 years.

Anybody here handled a Ruger LC9S?

I'm considering one for carry duty.

I like them.  They fixed the trigger issue.  Main problem I have is how sharp the corners of the sights are.  That's fixable.  They put some sharp-ass metal there. 

Size is right.

I have mixed feelings about carrying a tiny-9.  Something that small should not be your main thing -- just a break contact choice.  the 380s that are available are fine for that. 

sometimes i carry the KelTec 3AT and sometimes the Ruger.  I am most comfy carrying the 3AT tho -- it is absurdly small.  And I keep a little more firepower locked in the car and office, and the idea is that the pistol is just enough to get you away anyhow.

I originally bought the Springfield XDS but it was too large for me to carry comfortably.

Packing a bit more punch than a .380 appeals to me if it is comfortable to carry and manageable to shoot.

The LC9S is priced well too.

9mm only kills the body.  .45 kills the soul.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

a 17HMR works fine on deer.  you shoot them just below the ear.

I use my CZ 85 with the .22 conversion kit with a red dot.

I shot a S&W model 41 that a guy let me try, and another guy let me try a High Standard. I couldn't score any better with them and they're both supposedly 'more accurate' pistols, but not in my hands.

I doubt my service pistol will ever be a deficit at 50 feet.

Ended getting the mav88 18.5"   couldn't beat the price new and since all parts off a 500 fit it.  First scatter gun.  I'm stoked.  Working till 12am so will be cleaning it up tomorrow.

I know everyone has their own specific ammo size.  What's good cheap practice shells?

I just picked up a nearly-new S&W M&P22 for $250.  It will be a nice plinking and practice piece.

The CZ 85 certainly comes highly recommended.

I'll most likely be joining a pistol club late 15 or early 16. It'll have a number of club guns provided, however when it's time to purchase my own, the CZ 85 will be one I'll need to investigate.
