Jezebel blinks, "You know those guns are loaded," she shakes her head, "and 
you knew what I ment anyways.   Just because I suffer from trouth mubble 
there's no reason to make fun of me, I can make fun of me plenty enough for 
the both of us."

She continues to dress, pants, wipes her feet off carefully before putting 
socks and boots back on, combat harness, shoulder holster, butterfly holster 
and finally duster.

Once Woof *thinks* she's dressed, he starts getting the horses together, the 
rope coiled and around the pommel of his saddle.

Jezebel shakes her head as she clicks the bipod legs out softly, with a
practiced thumb she presses the quick release for the lens covers and the 
open with a soft pop.  She rests the rifle on a rock and moves herself into 
position, with both eyes open she lines up the back corner of the device in 
her line of fire.  Her breathing slows as she flicks the safety off and 
wraps her finger around the trigger.

The stock eases gently into her left cheak, stupid cupie doll mirror cheak 
bone still doesn't feel right for this.  She pauses for a moment waiting for 
everything to feel right, the waves rise and fall against the metallic 
surface in her sights.  Jezebels breathing continues on at a measures pace, 
her fingers tightens on the trigger, there's a soft click as the first stage 
is released.

Very softly as she exhales a shallow breath she utters a single word.
"Now."  Her finger pulls the trigger back in a single fluid movement.

>Woof snaps the shots as Jez takes the shot...

Jez and Woof are both looking through lenses as she fires the shot,
she through the sights of her sniper rifle and he through the lens of
his 35 mm camera.  As soon as Jez says "NOW!" Woof begins to click and
his camera begins to whir...

>CRACK!

...a hole appears in the rear of the large clyinder and it rocks, ever
so slightly.  Then it sits there with no
apparent change at all.

OOC:  You can't really tell if it is flooding from where you are, it
doesn't explode, there is no visible change...other than the small
hole in the rear cover...at all.

OOG - I hope you understood what I wanted to do...

Basically 45 degree angle, back corner right at the water line from a steep 
angle above it, well an angle high enough to penetrate the one side above 
the waterline and the otherside below it.

PS - I'm back on course for two weeks, this is the end of it but I'll be in 
and out of contact for the next few.  Morning and evening only.

Yep, understood perfectly.  Of course, resting in the cradle like
it is, the cylinder can't sink even when/if it is flooded, and there
isn't any *outward* evidence that it is flooded.

Just checking, okay pack up, reload that single round, next valley rinse and 
repeat.  Except no rifle this time we puncture the back casing with a knife 
above then below the waterline.

That will have to be an intention for now.  You still need to get to the 
next dam and it's beginning to rain...

Hell hath no fury like a Provincial Constable...  Wrote the first part of my 
test today, that was ugly but I'm feeling pretty good about it. It's pretty 
frightening when the instructor hands you a test that looks like a doctoral 
diseratation...  38 pages...

One test tommorow, one week of practical in the feild and them I'm free...  
Till August when we have to be retrained on the new TDG Regs...  You'd call 
them Hazmat Regulations.

We're probably all here, just being quiet.   I'll try to kick
