Wonderful Summeertime shooting........

[Lawdog]

Well, here it is three days before the official first day of Summer.  Snowing at the higher elevations and cold rain falling over the rest of Northern Calif.  Nothing much to shoot at but paper targets set up in the barn(not to mention the occasional field mouse one finds in the barn).  The only other targets to shoot at(pest wise) are the occasional mole, gopher, Ground Squirrel and rabbit that wander into the wife’s garden looking for a free meal(that is when the sun manages to peeks out and lets them wander from where ever they’re hiding from the rain).  Spending the mornings sitting on the porch at the picnic table with a pellet rifle set up on the shooting rest and a thermos of coffee waiting for a live target.  What ever happened to WARM Spring time weather?  Lawdog

Sounds like I'm doing about the same thing your doing execpt I'm shooting cans.....Nothing like the joy of bouncing a tin can around....(except now they're aluminum)..........The Tech Force 99 is really starting to come in.......over 1000 pellets down the bore and I'm hitting more than I'm missing.......some where between 750 and 1000 pellets the gun decided to start shooting.  I was starting to worry!

What I really like about the air gun, is that although I only live 15 minutes from the range, I can take the air rifle out in the pasture down by the barn and plink to my hearts content.........usually run 50 or more down the bore every afternoon........

We've had a week or so of hot weather, but for the most part, a very nice spring........matter of fact, high of 82 today.........74 at 7pm.....very nice!
