I used to when I could still see. Frankly I am only good to about 400 now. Maybe six if I had to. My eyes are wore out my hands shake, I can barely breathe . But other than that I am still the same guy!
Yea but popping them in the eyeball at 400 is still pretty good.
Yes but it’s been a while. I was Wisconsin 1000 yard Master class champion in 2009. Had the pleasure of shooting/scoring with Bryan Litz on the same target a couple times. One smart cookie and a really nice person. Very helpful. Now that the kids are less work and I’m retired, I hope to get back in the long range game. Nothing quite as satisfying as hitting a paper plate sized x-ring at 1000 yards, 10 for 10 from slung prone position with a .308 Win and iron sights. Reading the wind is the difference maker.
LMAO!Ya gotta stop taking those sim-rounds to the head!
Congrats guy! Wind is key key key. I feel like every long distance event I have won that there were always better shooters there, I just got lucky reading the wind.
That looks like it was a fun day!
My 9 year old took him down with my 10/22
I have went on record saying the Ruger 10/22 may be the best rifle ever and I will do so again! It is iconic. One resides on my four wheeler all day every day! You can’t farm without one!
I’ve always felt like I was missing out not having one. A friend did and it was a decent shooter. Got busy in life and other things took priority. Now I think I need to build a 10/22 with a 16” medium weight barrel to work with the Mask muffler I have on the way. I don’t need it, but it just seems right to have one. Should be able to build one cheaper than replacing the Nylon 66 I never should have let go. Prices on the 66’s have gone through the roof.
I never liked they idea of a paycheck, I feel like i allready put in my 40 hours, I shouldn't have to drive all across town to get my money, give me cash or direct deposit itThink back a ways, banks were only open Monday-Friday and ATMs were just a dream in some computer geek's head. I worked too late on a Friday to cash my paycheck at the banks. Only place we knew of that would cash a paycheck was Fedmart, but you had to make a purchase to do so. I went to the Sporting Goods Dept and there was the 10/22 in the gun rack. Cash, nice new Ruger, it was a good Saturday
The 66 bring crazy money scratched dented or faded! You can build virtually anything you want out of a 10/22 the after market parts for them are endless.
John, there is a multitude of options for carry insurance. But fundamentally there is about three gorillas in the room. By far the largest with the most options is USCCA, you can customize the coverage to exactly what you want, and their training resources is where they really shine. USLawshield is not quite as large but still a big dog. Again you can select the level of coverage you prefer, they do not have anywhere near the training and education resources that USCCA has but arguably if you only want insurance and no education they are a bit more competitive on price point and again arguably better level of coverage if you read the fine print. There is also attorneys on retainer which is a dark horse if you will but growing. It really comes down to what kind of coverage you want and where. Our group of instructors are pretty evenly split between USCCA and USlawshield, edge going to Lawshield. We all have to carry a bit different coverage due to being trainers, than the typical carry insurance guy. With regard to our students I would say USCCA easily wins out as most popular. While I do not sell insurance or get any kind of referral compensation I always and I mean always stress to my students the importance of having the insurance and the education to navigate both a routine traffic stop while carrying and also how to navigate the aftermath of a defensive shooting regardless of who they select. The point here is if you carry you need the insurance. Apologies this got so long winded.
As John said you have to research and make the best choice for you.
