Tomorrow is Saturday, who's burni'n powder?

[jerry]

Other than trudging through some existing snow, the weather shouldn't be too bad to get out and burn some. Yes, hillbilly Jerry has the weather channel.

I'm thinking about running the muzzleloader through it's paces my self. Come home clean it, have a cup of coffee or two and line up a few fishing reels for when ice out comes. MMMMMM! Fresh crappie slabs fried in Andy's corn meal breading.

I am thinking about doing some with the 22 while cleaning up my feedplots Sunday

[jerry]

Sounds good guys. I like game Q's, a bit of everything.

Carrying a .22 in the field is fun. Shoot at an old log or whatever, just plain fun.

Shaun, here are some of our food plot pics we worked on earlier this fall.

My daughter loves horses. Took riding lessons last year when I was gone (some dad I am)
one of her instructors was recently hurt bad. Female, the horse reared up on her. She caught a saddle horn in the gut. Dislocated a pelvic bone, bruised bladder etc.. pretty bad deal. Gotta respect horses as much if not more than guns.

I may pop a few tomorrow, if it doesn't rain. I hate getting rained on...

Jerry: Why did I know you'd block out the pic of your daughter. From your earlier posts I believe you've given us the reason. I think that was a good idea, too, even though I would bet she's a very pretty girl. Tell her hello from Ox. Hope her 4-H projects are coming along ok.

Also, those leaves remind me of my neighbor's back yard here in suburbia. Most eventually blow over the fence into my yard and I'm the stooge who picks up his leaves.

Regarding plunking w/a .22, I used to do that a lot years ago when I lived on a farm. Had a pond and creek, plus a lot of timber area for enticing game to nest there. Now that was a fun day when my bro. and I took our .22 and an antique single barrel 16 ga SG on a walk through the timber. Snakes weren't safe, as well as bottles and tin cans. Occasionally a rabbit would hit the lead of one of our guns, probably more accidental than because of skill on our parts.

And 7Mmag6...Just in case your sinuses need clearing...just breath deeply when the loose straw gets cleared off the surface. I used to have the job every Spring of cleaning out our millking barn which was not designed like the modern parlors. Ours had railroad ties for a bottom, straw on top, and we milked by hand until my senior year when my brother left home. Dad took mercy on my and bought a couple of automatic suction milking units which were my job to use. Anyway, by Spring the ceiling space got a lot closer for some reason, mainly because of sxxt. being piled higher and higher mixed with straw. Yeow! :jaw: Have fun and tell your horses to use the outside John next time they get the urge.

Thanks Ox :right: Daughters face blocked out per her request. She actually works for the CIA. She's currently on assignment in Afghanastan with the 10th Mtn. Div. (on horseback of course)
She calls me on the secure SAT phome and tells me she's on the trail of Binny. Or was that Bunny?

4H is going well, thanks.

At the range today, I was shooting a few of my twentytwos, the Martini and Winchester target rifles primarily. I had just built a bracket for the Parker-Hale aperture sight I wanted to fit to the Martini. Had to test and sight it in. A young guy came over, interested in the old guns, and it turns out he collects rimfire rifles too. We got to talking, and finally we finished shooting, as it was starting to get crowded. Tony had a couple FSU kids with him, and they were camping in the woods nearby. They invited me over for a campfire dinner. Cool!
Campfire cooked venison and baked beans - way cool! It's been awhile since I've eaten real campfire fare. We talked more guns and stuff - turns out Tony is an old-style blacksmith. Made all his own iron camp gear - tripod, fire rake, lantern hanger, etc.
He even lent me an extra .22LR cylinder for a Heritage revolver, to see if it would fit my old Tanfoglio. If it works, I'll buy it from him.

Ya meet the finest people out at the range.

Well, the meal was good, and they were breaking camp - the college guys had to get back and do homework.
Then came the floorshow - watching them pack all their gear (a pretty good bit for three guys), and the three burly guys into a little two-door Dodge Colt econocar. I'd swear their wasn't a cubic inch of open space in that little car.

[jerry]

sounds like a great time. you would have missed out by not going. I'm postponed 'till tomorrow.

[Sniper[MI]]

Beautiful day here, in the 40's and the fluffy white garbage is melting...

Well, it's Sunday morning and wife and I are off to Ben Avery to test some Yugo M48 test 8MM recipes and to sight in the Kimber 1911 and to test some varied reloads.

I answered Lenny's PM about doing a shoot with him and Snakebite but Lenny's folders are all full and the send didn't take.

Sent him regular e-mail and still no reply.

So, we are off by ourselves.
