Default It seems quiet in ML land

Gents,

It seems awfully quiet out there in ML land. I suspect everyone is recovering from a long and happy hunting season.

I got snowed out of my range day this weekend. The new (NIB) MK85 will have to wait yet another weekend for its first round to be fired. I will try to post a full report with pictures after the session. If have been staring at this new rifle for two weeks now and it is killing me!

It is quiet. I check the site atleast twice a day (once in the morning once in evening) everyday, and I read the posts. I don't post much because I don't have a lot of experience with ML's but I'm still soaking it all in 2 yrs later.

Yep. Not a lot of shooting reports or kill reports recently.

I'm truly burned out from hunting season. Getting up at 5 a.m. every Friday, Saturday and Sunday since mid-November, hunting hard and seeing very little game got so old that I was glad to see the season end last weekend.

I'm looking forward to my springtime routine of heading to the hunting lease on nice weekends, sleeping late in my hooch, having a good breakfast, and hitting the range for two or three hours of shooting in the late morning. Then I can take a break, eat lunch, clean the gun, and break out a different one for another session in the afternoon. It's a tough routine, but I can handle it.

I am still shooting almost every day but not posting the shooting results because I am shooting a lot of the same things over and over now. I guess I need a new rifle.
