Down sizing this year
« on: February 08, 2009, 06:52:52 AM »
In the past I have been dragging along more guns than I could shoot so this year I decided to down size , will be bringing Handi's in 223 Rem , 224 GNR , 5MM RF and also my 41 GNR S&W to use for the up close work .

I have been working up some mid range 195g cast loads for the S&W and shooting it out to 100 yards just to get ready , may even toss in some full power rounds just to stop a charge it needed .  ;D

This will also make loading much easier .  ;)

I know why you're downsizing.  Without Fuzzy to help you carry all your guns, you've decided you only need 3 or 4.  With the picture Wingman posted of the PD with the bandoleer, we may need all the firepower we can get!   ;D ;D

Hey, Stimpy.  Don't forget the .50 BMG.  If they come at ya, ya gotta nail em afore they git ya.

I hope all of you have fun......perhaps next year.

If I make it out this year it will be a .223 Rem and a .22lr.  That is what I shoot the most of anyway.
