    Default We found the rifle range!!!!!!

    It is with great joy I report that our range has finally reemerged from under about eight feet of snow. That ought to give me two weeks before the doc forbids me shooting centerfire rifles pending another drill & blast operation in my back. So I shall sit down and shoot my handguns at 100yds, 12" gong for the carry pieces, 4" for the Contenders. If I refer to my .223 bolt as a ".22 rifle" it ought to keep him happy. I just hope I won't have to learn a new offhand position like last time - I've finally gotten back to where I can hit what I'm aiming at again. Hopefully I won't have to learn to shoot all my rifles sitting, but if that's how the dice fall then I'll just buy more gongs and lower the loading bench.

    So, help me keep my perspective. Tell us about where you currently shoot, what you're shooting, what you're loading it with, and what you're shooting it at. It really made a big difference last time.

    Glad to hear the snow is going away
    Sorry to hear about your back
    I hope your operation goes well and you can still shoot standing up
    As far as shooting that's not in the picture for quite some time
    I'm working 12 hours a day five days a week and any free time is devoted to our granddaughter and the farm
    I am working on getting 264RLB #9 in operation just need it chambered and then I'll spin it on a savage receiver and try to get some testing done on her
    I must say I do miss seeing you guys up north and if I come up this July we'll have to meet up and shoot some bull

    Best of luck on your upcoming operation. I guess that means you won't be able to shot my 416 this summer. LOL

    You can however have the use of my 1" thick sorbothane recoil shield. I'll watch.
