Default Just so you Know

Winter has left again and I can not stand this thick air here in Moscow, to many people, I am headed to the rock pit, the sun is shinning the wind has disappeared and it is 50f outside - sounds like it is time to go shoot.

I really need to get this second Renegade barrel sighted in. I changed the rear sight sight to fiber optic and the front sight to a standard .500 TC fiber optic blade, but it is to tall so I ordered a .450 ramp fiber optic from
Williams and now I am headed out to test it.

Also and really important.... the ground squirrels are up and running in the meadows... and I really feel I need to do my part in helping the cattlemen, so that their calves running aroundon the open range do not step in those ankle breaking holes the squirrels dig.... my little bit of help to us beef eaters.

more of a report later....

[:@]Well we have 36F here along with a snow rain mix. Wind is WNW @ 15MPH with gust @ 30MPH.
I finished trimming cases to reloadand have another bach in the tumbler.
Going to visit a gun shop called Guns Galore, Last time I was there, about 5 years agoI bought two rifles.
But I really want to get a couple more loading blocks and[:@] decapping pins for Lyman dies. If they were RCBS dies they would send a pack of new ones for free.

Have fun shooting and make a nice pile of squirrels for the weasel.

Good call GB. SL is like that. He rubs it in all the time.

I just hope Terry kicks his rear for not getting the grass mowed!!!! That'll teach him.

[:@]Didn't get to Guns Galore after all, decided the roads didn't need me out there for pidly stuff. [&:]Check the last time I was there and turns out was 12 years ago instead of 5 years.[&:]Boy having a lot of elder moments of late. Going the Midsouth route instead.
Work []I have enough right here in the area. Still am wondering how I had time to go to one of those paying type jobs and get any thing done at home.
[8D]We arenot even heavy into the bee season yet, but soon.
