My 1250 rocks..... but I'm getting too weak to shoot it ... LOL

[Silo]

This is at the end of the shoot today. I had been shooting for a while and tried for some 40 yard groups
(Rich I lied ... they were 40, not 50 yards   )
Any how, let the pic speak for it's self..... although the only tags I got were when I was at my
wobbliest, looks like I need LOTS more practice. Dano git yer self up here so we can shoot some.  

Donate it to me, I'll be sure to get you a receipt for next years taxes.

Good shootin......  

I know what you mean about the sore arms.  I love my 1250 also, but after about 30 or 40 shots I'm done for the day.  I have a bad rotator cuff joint in both shoulders and the 1250 takes it's toll on them after awhile, that's why I don't target shoot with it except to make sure the scope is dialed in for hunting.

Hey I'm ready to go at a moments notice!

Should be meeting JMG up in Gainesville this coming week...maybe next we'll go your way?

LOL, yeah. I have a gammy wrist and it kills it. I have to change cocking arms after about 30 shots.
I can however testify to the fact that my arms have gotten stronger since I got it.
I used to fade after 30 shots, now I can manage at least 60 before crying  "Uncle!"
After shooting this beast the CFX feels like a feather.  

[CharlieDaTuna]

Yep ... and one of the reasons I won't tune them. That and lack of good parts.

[Silo]

I have you on my calendar for the 21st .... shoot and small BBQ + beer, you still coming right??
JMG can come along also, he's not far from where I go punch paper. It's at exit 42 on 75 just
North of McKinney. It'll be good to meet up and put faces to these names.
Next weekend I'll be going up to Texoma to do some camping with my sons, the weekend after
that I'm shooting all weekend.... I hope.  
  :p

Well I hate to see a fellow member in pain :0  so go ahead and send it my way. I've been working out with my thighmaster er I mean in the gym. Ed

[Silo]

now thats just plain wrong..... but we love you man, so we'll just pretend like you never mentioned
the TM thing hehe!!  

[Silo]

Awww c'mon Bob... hehe!    I was just thinking of stripping it down and checking it over.
Maybe a little lube tune, just to be sure that everything's good.
Looks Like I'm going to have to get me one of the Rich spring compressors, I need to lube both
the 350 and the 1250. although I hear that the spring on the 350 is not that bad and that I should
be able to get it out and back in with an extra set of hands.  What do you think Bob?

[DanoInTx]

I have a spring compressor if you need it...might need to tweak it a little for your gun, but it works for most stuff:)

Just send me an email and remind me to bring it when we shoot.

Dan

[DanoInTx]

Well, I'm an O'Douls guy myself, but I bet I could drink 30 of my beers and still shoot straight:)

The 21st sounds good to me, you have a zip code for this location?  I can plot it on Google Earth...I have just started putting airgun locations together on there...well, besides airgun people, this will be my first real "location"...oh wait, I DO have the Kermit Airgun Club range in Google Earth too...and Gene's house!  I found McKinney, I found 75....huhm, not seeing exit 42:(

Dan

[Silo]

Sorry no zip, but here's  the Google map to it.
it's the little red ringed area around the small pond.
It's used as a 4X4 stomping ground and target range. Also a couple of Grackles every now and again  
Well if you don't mind me drinking lite beer I promise not to worry either    ..... yeah the straight
shooting bit is why I have the beer AFTER the shoot LOL   my arms are lame enough as it is.
I'll mail directions to my place a bit later.
Roald.

[Silo]

Thanks, Yes please. Can you fetch it along with you when you come up on the 21st?
That would be great, I could service both the heave springers then...  
You Da MAN!
