Went up and shot off the stick again today right at 102 yard. After i made the first three shots on this target, i quit shooing at it. Did it with the Accura which has a peep sight, and the load was 105g BH209 lit by a W209 primer, pushing a 300g Gold Dot in a smooth Harvester sabot. Put the rifle in the yoke pretty close to the end of the forearm, and put the toe of the stick up against my toe, which puts the stick way out of plumb. The rifle waves back and forth across the target, and forcing me to 'squweeeze' isn't very easy. The hammer dropped with a 'surprise' twice, but the other time i could just so barely feel 'creep' of the trigger.

We get to use a scope out on the prairie from October 2 through 17, and from January 1 through 9. This rifle is set up nice the way it is, but i do have a scope on the shelf in the shop. That stainless model on sale has me looking. When she saw a picture of it in the catalog, wife said it was pretty. Was wanting to save dinero for a mill, but the price on the stainless rifle is pretty good, and it has a breech plug which requires a wrench, which i think i like just fine. I wrap my breech plugs with teflon tape, and this requires a wrench to remove, and install. Using teflon tape sure has worked out good for me, so it seems i should purchase the 'old' model while it is available. A mill in the shop would be helpful, and be very interesting to make friends with, and fun to learn.

Some feel this officer used excessive force, but most don't it seems.
