American daughters of Dan'l Boone and Sgt. York failed to place in the 10-meter (about 33 feet in real money) shoot. A shaken Pentagon has declined comment.
A word about the weapons.
Looks just like my Daisy Red Ryder would if I hired the staff of Tiger Balm Gardens to customize it.

30 meters is about 33 yards, or about 98 feet.

Gack. It was the 10-meter range. Fixed. And thank you.
Few years back a local writer here in OKC wrote a piece about the then-current Olympics shooting competition, and the US getting beaten by a Finn. Made some comment about "How could we be outdone with guns by some wussy FINN?"
My response was "Just go ask them directly. And please put it exactly that way."
