73 Years old and I fell in love today
« on: July 27, 2009, 03:28:21 PM »
 ;D Here are a few things that drew me to the conclusion that I was in love.
   1. Varget powder
   2. 300 gr. sierra FNHP
   3. Cinnamon laminated mc stock
   4. 31/2 lb trigger
   5. Old weaver v-4 scope
   6. 1 in MOA
   7. 220 yd  6 in swinging targets
   When I squeezed her, she responded like she loved me too.

              I love that 45 70 Handi.

Nothing like a little action with the one you love.

Are you 73 years old, or is the rifle 73 years old?

 ;D ;D  It's Kinda like the Burger King commercial. I've learned how to handle a" WHOPPER".   Well kinda Sorta. It's fun to shoot even with those ugly looking reloads. You know the ones that have an bulge on the outside of the case wall. Maybe that bulge makes them shoot better. ::) ::) It's raining for the next week, as per the weather channel, so I'm gonna refill those empty cartridges. Really enjoyed yesterdays range trip. Fishing will be lousy, so I'll head back to the range when the sun shines again.

This is a way better love story than any of those found on cable TV. It makes me happy that you're so happy Jim. ;)
