Wife got me the Pocket Predator "Hathcock" ss for my birthday. I've only shot it a few times, but I like it. I need to make a catch box, as ball bearings get expensive.

Today, I received my YoSlingshots "WBG" (Wasp Be Gone) Cool little ss, looking forward to shooting it. This one is not my photo:

Any other plinkers around here?
 
Nice, Your wife got you a sling shot for your birthday. How cool is that.
I have one thet my son and I play with and I have one of those little BB shooter. Looks like it is made with a condom.

My wife likes the whole outdoorsy thing as well. I got her a BK14, among other things, for Christmas. I've seen the little BB shooters you speak of.

Yep, but casually. I practice with pea gravel and use dollar store/50 for $1 marbles for practice. Ball bearings can be bought in bulk on like from that big place that used to be a book store or by googling "loose ball bearings".

I haven't messed with mine in a while. I might have to get it out tomorrow since the weather isn't going to be bad.:thumbup:
 
Thought about buying some marbles myself. I did find 3/8" ballbearings for a little over $6. 250 bearings, that is.
 
I use marbles from Dollar Tree. Find them in the craft/florist section. $1 for a bag of 100-150.
 
Very cool........... How is your grip on that........ I can't quite picture it in my head! Is your hand locked back all the way?

I take it you're talking about the Pocket Predator. Here's a few photos I took earlier. It is a wide ss:

Have seen that video before. That guy is awesome. Bill Hayes does a lot of stuff like that too. Cutting a suspended card, in a breeze, from 50ft, etc. Rufus Hussey, also known as the bean shooter man, was also an incredible shot. Shooting bugs off leaves, quarters out of the air, etc.
 
I wonder what a bag of buck shot from an ammo reloading shop would cost..................

Not sure. I like shooting the 3/8 ball bearings. The guy I bought the smaller ss off of, recommends 5/16 bearings for it.
