I may have changed my mind

I mean, I have an SKS- so I have an autoloading rifle, it’s more accurate than any low end ar I could probably buy and the ammo is cheap, and i like the caliber more anyway. SO I may buy a lower as an insurance policy, and spend the rest of the money on more ammo for the SKS.

I also have been looking at the ‘refinished” 91-30’s, and I’m drawn to them. I may have to get one, at $69.

Sigh.

Saturday went afield and saw a nice deer within five minutes.

Now I love shooting over iron, and I can reach out to 100 yards with the Marlin, no problem, iron sights and all. I drew a bead on that sucker, and thought, “does that deer have antlers?”

I couldn’t tell. And I wasn’t going to kill an illegal deer.

So I stopped on the way home and picked up a set of rings for the Marlin and mounted an old 3-9 power on it.

Hell to get old. I bought seethroughs, so I could use the scope to see if it was a male, and shoot it with iron. Damned if I’ll give up my principles just for convenience.

Deer 1, Og 0.

And my nether regions are chilled to the bone. How can nads that have been this cold all day still be sweaty? Fuck the Da Vinci Code, figure out how you can get ballsweat in 30 degrees.
