Well, it looks like another shooting day has been ruined by rain.

We were going to the farm tomorrow and I was going to stretch the somewhat new .270 out to 200 yds and see how well it shoots.

Unfortunately, it's raining like hell and if it rains out there, I can't even get to the field where I shoot. It also means I can't get to the back of the other field to rebait my hog traps.

We always need rain around here, but the timing really blows. ...

Man, work was brutal today and it rained for about 1\2 hr, this morning, so the humidity went throught the roof when the sun came out. I stopped about for about 15 min. to eat lunch in the air-conditioned office, but the rest of the day was spent standing on concrete working on hot-ass cars in a shop with very little ventilation.
I love my customers but the job is wearing me out!

O.K. guys, I've been watching videos on youtube and I've decided to marry both of the girls from Abba. I know they're both like 60 or so, but I figure my 80's imagination will compensate for a few wrinkles. Now I just have to tell my wife. Oh yeah, I hope they don't mind sharing me with Shania Twain....

Man, I just back from the farm where I spent a very enjoyable day staying out of my wifes' hair with my grandson. We borrowed my FIL's .22 and went on a "walkabout". I ended up shooting a woodpecker and two rabbits, we saw some fresh hog sign, refilled the deer feeder, and just had a great day in general. Hope you guys had a good one as well.

I've seen several posts lately from (mostly) new members, who seem to have a deep seated urge to downtalk everyone else's choice of guns, ammo, clothing, optics, etc... WTF?

I say, if you don't like a particular product, stay away from the forum dedicated to that product.

I'm not a big Remington fan, as such, I don't frequent the Remington forum and proceed to tell everyone that Remington makes crap unfit to grace my hands.

What motivates...
