Mr. Bill was the Highlight of the Range!

While going to the range, I got to see “Mr. Bill”, a friend of a friend who just came back from throat cancer surgery. He is looking great! and it amazing spirits! “Mr. Bill”, it was great to see you again!

Also, I got to shoot Obiedon’s new 45/70, and now I HAVE to have one. It was way too cool, and wasn’t as bad as I expected.

I shot pretty well with my Kimber, but experienced three jams, that were completely my fault. My wrist was breaking too early, and too much reducing energy on the slide to eject the empty casing clearly. Oddly enough, it only occurred on the last round of the magazine. I think it had to do with the fact that I count my shots in my head, and knowing it was the last round, I simply lost focus on the last shot.

I will be going back to work on that issue, and hopefully can determine how to better prevent that from happening.

The 45/70 shot like a dream, and now I’m very excited by the proposition of owning own, and then going Elk Hunting with it.

I’ll keep you posted…

This could become a habit.

I’m writing this while working on a server, but I’m going to the range again today…. every other friday? Could it be a habit?

I can’t wait…

Going to shoot Obiedon’s new 45/70 Marlin, and I look forward to seeing this weapon and getting a chance to bruise my shoulder.

Of course, the Kimber, and some others will be going as well…

If you want to join us, come to American Classic Marksman on Peachtree Industrial in Duluth today at 3pm.
