RAIN STOPS PLAY!!!! ............. again...
« on: July 01, 2007, 09:14:40 AM »


I've been away for almost 4 weeks and have a serious need to play (shoot)
First I had to fix the yard that looked like a jungle after 3 weeks of non-stop rain
and no maintenance. That done I showered and set up my little 20'ish yard lane
and settled down to do some shooting.
First I took out the RWS460 and it was magic! that thing shoots so straight it's scary.
It totally removed the dime sized center of the Gamo target in about 15 shots.... sweet!
I then took out the 350 and just got used to the hold again, about 10 shots later it starts
to rain again..... really hard and floods out my whole shooting lane. This is not what I had
in mind at all..... I'm gong to have to build a small lean too to keep me sheltered from the
weather when shooting, I was just getting warmed up, now I have to wait for it to stop raining,
although it does not look like it will....... well not in the next 3 hours anyway.... I'm depressed.



So to cure the extreme case of the blues I got, I ordered myself a new Air rifle :)
I have a B40 arriving some time this next week.... see I'm in a better mood already :emoticon:



I only eat things that had parents.
