What did you do today

[B P Maniac Shooter]

Now that sir, is a great hobby.

Oh yeah....here's where we fly occasionally:

 

[B P Maniac Shooter]

Rode my motorcycle to Bass Pro Shop to see what I didn't really need but wanted. Bought a few shirts and pairs of shorts. Also a new nipple wrench for my wheel guns.View attachment 79641

Nice bike !

Finished inletting the double set trigger on my J. Armstrong build. Then fired up the weedeater to knock down some high grass in the yard. Fixed dinner & watched "Heaven is for real".

Made some ingots, talked to my 7 year old daughter about what Memorial Day is about and told her all about her Great Grandfathers who served in WW2 and Korea, then took her shooting for the 1st time!

We shot my new .50 Traditions Trapper that I bought off the forum. 20 grains of Goex was a good load for her, she loved it! That pistol is super accurate too, I'm very happy with that purchase.

Now that sir, is a great hobby.

Back when I was a younger man.

Sadly the Mustang wasn't mine, I just got to fly it. The Grumman in the background was mine.

 

[smo]

Just got back from a week of camping & shooting with a group of good Friends!

 

[Kestrel]

Watched 13 Hours so that those brave men will never be forgotten and so that I could renew my UNDYING HATRED OF HILLARY CLINTON!!!!

 

[bisleyjohn]

Made another spout because I left mine 200 miles away!

15gn Swiss 2f for my Remington repros.

Hi all,

These are ~ late 50's early 60's clay bird houses that have been in the family for as long as I can remember.
Used a wire brush to clean the crud, lichen, etc. from them and soaked them in hot soapy water over night.
After rinsing and allowing to dry the fun began.

So, Krylon primer, paint and 3M blue masking tape (the stars were also made from said tape as masks over the white base).
Naturally I found Navy blue after the fact...

p.s. even after a bit of search on-line, I've yet to see any others. A few more would be nice to re-do.

Did some cleanup in the house; stayed out of the way of SWMBO for the rest of the day.

 

[Kenn]

Its a Cessna 172......great planes to fly.

Maybe we'll meet one day !!

 

[Woody Morgan]

Took the TRD in finally for a popping/creaking sound under the vehicle. It was getting loud and making my butt adhere a little too tightly to the seat.
Got a call back from the shop in the middle of a nap and they said my skid plate was loose. I said that I've been informed of that but what's wrong with the truck. Anyways, they just tightened it up, no charge and now it's easier for me to disengage from the seat.

Replaced another ceiling fan, seems like I just put that one up 20 years ago

I know my son would LOVE to meet. He loves flying those planes with 2 fans on it. Who knows...maybe we will someday.

Yesterday..6-1....I got my 2nd Covid Vaccine shot. I still feel like I've been up for 72 hours straight. Didn't do it for me, did it for my family.

I have a low motivation girlfriend, her house burned and the new one looks like a hoarders house, both sides of a double car garage filled with piles of old clothes and assorted junk. I told her to have a new house built and not be able to park in the garage was a travesty that she should correct. I'll be dang if she didn't take this suggestion to heart.

She said a lot of the stuff in the garage was gifted to her from friends and neighbors when her house burned. She started sorting and storing the useful stuff in the attic, being a bright resourceful gal she even rigged a pully system to hoist the heavy totes up into the attic.

Yesterday it was "go to the dump" day, I have a truck, she doesn't. We piled my F250 truck bed full of trash bags filled with stuff to take to the dump, then loaded another layer on top of the first with bags of clothes to take to the Good Will.

The first stop was at the Good Will store to lighten our load.

My girl friend is directionally challenged, although she had been to the dump several times (she lives in TN, I live in Bama) she got us lost and had us driving in circles trying to find that dump that she said was "right around the corner". I finally told her to get out her phone and have it tell us where the dump was. Bingo! The GPS lady on the phone had us there in short order, mission accomplished.

At the end of the day she could park two cars in the garage, now it is time to tackle the inside of the house that looks much the same as the garage once did.

She must be my wife's sister ... you described our place very precisely. Polecat

Went to the hospital infusion center for my monthly infusion; 'bout it I guess.

I hope that was a Wild Turkey infusion. Just for health.

Took my .54 plains rifle (lefty cap lock) to the range today, set up the chronograph and a target at 100 yards.
Load A: 60 grains 2F Goex, .542 patched round ball (she is a fat .54.) Averaged 1400 FPS, ES 26 FPS; good group, good patches, low at 100.
Load B: 60 Grains 777 2F, same ball. Averaged 1620 FPS, ES 47 FPS; vertical stringing, torn patches. OOPS!
Load C: 80 2F Grains Goex, same ball. Averaged 1650 FPS, ES 62 FPS; good group, good patches. Winner!
Load D: 90 grains 3F Goex, same ball, averaged 1675 FPS, ES 66 FPS; poor group, shredded patches.
Load E: 70 Grains #F Goex, .535 patched round ball. Averaged 1650 FPS, ES 95 FPS; poor group, could find no patches!

Lovely day, clear and warm, not hot, and a slight breeze. Saw three deer and a hen turkey. Came home and found a bear on my trail camera 21 yards from my front door. Had to refill the bird feeders. They will come in night for a while.

Tomorrow back to the range to fine tune that Load C!
