my sis went up to tenn. to get some lotery tickets,i gave her money to get me a few.I knew i was going to win bigtime i just had that feeling. so they posted the numbers and just like i thought i hit it for $45.00. but something was not right i felt like i was still going to win bigtime. About 12:00 today one of my rockhunting buddys drove up to the house,he got out with this grin on his face,he said man you are one lucky sob.And out of his truck he pulled a big black box out with tompson center on it .It still didn't hit me i just thought he was going to show me his new ml hehad bought.He handed it to me and said you lucky ass ,you only bought one raffle ticket for a dollar and won a $300. omega. its a blue 50 cal with the black stock i already put a scope on it and can't wait till sat. to make smoke.I had forgot that i even bought a chance. The only bad thing about it was one of the local huntingclubs had made up the raffle to try and raise enough money to lease a big hunk of timber land,they went in the hole about $60. i will post a picture of it later today.

congratulations on the new rifle and being as lucky as you are. Perhaps it will rub off on hunting season and you will get a chance to shoot that muzzleloader at something that will really put a smile on your face...

Let us know how it shoots Lucky
