B3-3 gets first kill

[bluetalon1]

It was early sat. morning, I grabbed my gun and walked out back to look for some game. Well, 45 minutes past and all I found was a soda can so I shot it a few times. Then, a flock of black birds few by but none landed. I decided it was time to go in and do the breakfast thing when another flock of birds decided to land about 100yrds away. I walked towards them slowly and finally got about 55-60 ft from the one I wanted to take a shot at . I was very nervous, exited, that I was finally going to get my chance to try this little b3-3 out. I set my sight, held my breath and squeezed the trigger. POP - Direct hit, He came straight down, dead. The pic is in my album for those interested in taking a look.

Nice shootin'!  Congratulations!

Fine shootin', Rudy! Your shooter and her prey look great together.

Great Rudy, the B3's can drop game with no problem and your's proved it. Great shot and pic and if you haven't tuned her , you would be amazed at the difference. Thank's for sharing. Ed

Excellent shootin Rudy.   As Ed said,,, those little B-3's are more than capable of taking game if the shooter does his/her part.  The rifle looks great lying there next to her kill.   Ed also hit on another good point,,,,, if you haven't tuned your B-3 consider it,,,,, it can make a big difference in the performance.
Lookin forward to your future B-3 kill pics......

well, I did take it apart and cleaned it up before adding some automotive type grease to the spring only. It has a synthetic seal and the stock spring was replaced with the one from the cleaning kit. I think it is slinging those 14 grainer's as fast as it can. If /When I need more power I"ll just grab my RWS 48M .22 cal.  
The b3-3 .22 is just so easy to shoot.
