The plain. The perty.

I'd like to make it over there some day. 1950 miles is a long expensive trip these days. :( With my knees I have a hard time driving any distance. 😢

When the opportunity arises I sure do. Unfortunately all matches of that sort have stopped at Cody. I'm ready though should a match pop up somewhere. I use a slug gun or picket rifle at Glasgow MT every August. They have no limits on the type of rifle to be used in the ML match.

There is also a BPCRS match on Saturday the 10th. Trying to keep shooting sports going.

That's Glasgow MT. No, the wind never stops blowing. We shot a RB match there a couple years ago and we had six inches of drift at fifty yards.

Here's a 39. Not quite a 40. If it was a 40 it'd be all engraved and be sporting fancy wood and gold inlays and and...

Hunger and desperation improves follow through.

All my rifles had names when I got them. If I was to put a pet name one rifle it would have to be a flintlock. Sparky or Rocky. Stoner? To weird for me.

11 pounds 8 ounces. No, no that's not my current favorite. 11.8 is the weight of my favorite RB rifle. A Hawken rifle. My current favorite is a just acquired target rifle and it weighs 16 pounds. My favorite is the one I'm currently messing around with. But that could change. At any time. I'm...

I don't remember......

My dad who was a shooter collector passed it on to me when I was very young. He had a very ornate German hunting rifle with damascus barrel that I used to shoot indians with on the old Zenith. Yes, functional art, history, appreciation of fine craftsmanship, fine wood. The muzzleloader went...
