There's something sexy about a woman with a rifle who can shoot...and kinda scary!
Wish more women would get involved in shooting sports and 2A promotion.

Impressive that she did it standing up, no bench rest. I've done 200 meter 22 caliber shots at orange shot gun clays with good success bench rest. Sorta wish she had talked a bit a bout compensating for wind.

She is an entertainer,, so I suspect she picks the days when the wind is near 00.00.
I have noticed, over watching several vids, that she uses different "ranges" for each shot, in an open desert area. Helps when you can align target to the wind.

I would take folks out shooting and shoot a “dead” saguaro cactus, with a .45 from standing. She’s a good shot and knows the mechanics. But it’s not magic. If you look at the ground she’s standing on it’s almost a no wind day.
And a .22 “lamborghini rifle” is just fine to make a 300m shot with. In sniper school we’d pick left or right eye at 300m. When she does it with a pistol, call me. Or when she shoots a bullet hole through a bullet hole, call me.
Until then it’s just youtube silliness .

What's with the bizarre looking rifle stocks? Is all that necessary to put an accurate shot down range these days? I guess I'm just old school...shooting my dad's old .22 LR bolt action w/ iron sights when I go out to plink at targets.

Looks like she may shooting her videos in the high planes of Nebraska, as she was on the Corn Husker shooting team.

I always wanted to participate in an open biathlon just to see all the judges and competitors lose their minds when I ski up to the shooting line with my Winchester 94/22. They'd think I was a caveman wielding a cudgel or something.
