head on over to Professor Hale’s place.

On some things he’s as full of shit as a Christmas Goose, but this post is clear as a bell and dead nuts on. You should read. Maybe print it out and pass it around.

Gander Mountain

had some 22 on sale, I grabbed a box this AM on the way in to work. It didn’t last long but it is at least there. $24 for 525 rounds of Federal. Decent price and decent ammo.

New scope.

I had an old Bushnell on the McGowan rifle, but it really didn’t do what I wanted, and it’s power was not appropriate for the rifle. I have not shot it for ages because of that and because of the bad trigger and because of the bad stock

The trigger is fixed and the stock has been replaced, and now all that remains is to put a good scope in place, and I can do some serious shooting.

So I have been looking at the Leus and the Reds but tonight a guy at Gander got me to hold up some Nikon glass.

Damn.

The one I’m looking at is the Monarch 2.5-10 x 42 BDC.

The reticle may take some getting used to. I should have the cash for it in a couple weeks and when I do I will have to get serious about rings.

Coming together, anyway.
