Partner and I and the nefew headed off to the range today, a long overdue trip, indeed. <\/p>\n
Partner has come into a few dollars, and hell, he’s a single guy so he has disposable income,so he’s been buying stuff.<\/p>\n
Stuff like a pristine Krag-Jorgensen. I mean, the wood is gorgeous. It’s blue is a little weak, but whattya want for a 100+ year old gun? Anyway, it shoots like blazes. And we shot his new (Well, to him, anyway) Springfield 03A3. I brought my Swiss rifle, and we all took a swipe at it. And he had his M1 Carbine, which was a dream to shoot, and to look at. <\/p>\n
We shot everything at 100 yards. We were shooting at 16″ x 20″ targets. We kept them on the paper. Pretty good shooting, actually, for a bunch of fat old guys with bad eyes. <\/p>\n
Oh, and i shot the Marlin 336. It loves to feed the new Hornady Leverevolution rounds. And I love to shoot it. I shot it best of anything. <\/p>\n
All in all? A great range day. I mean, I love to have rifles that have reach out and touch something. And to be able to repeatably hit a man sized target at 100 yards? Feels good. I like it fine. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
