I discussed "shooting" the well with my Father-in-law, a well driller for 50 years. He laughed and said "Horse$#!^!!" Pretty awesome guy. Explained that a .22short fired into a column of water 20feet tall ain't likely to do anything other that leave anothet chunk of crap in the well to brock flow. What he suggested was to Shock the well with swimming pool shock treatment. let it set for a little while (2 beers) and surge it with a hose. I'm using a 55 gal barrel, a hose and plastic pipe. I'll see if I can float some of the crud out of the well. If not...my wallet will take another beating.
