You will learn far more at the casting, loading, and shooting bench than you ever will at a computer bench.

The GF and I finally decided to get married the 1st of this month:
This is me out hunting:
This is my super tough manly dog, Snoopy, but she is dumber than a box of rocks so my kids call her Snoopid:

Thanks and yep she is pretty cute. It is her one saving grace besides blood trailing. She is kind of a pain for everything else where I am concerned but the wife and kids love her to pieces so I guess I am stuck with her. The deer is from last year or the year before, I can't remember. We can get two deer a year up here and with me getting mine, plus my son getting his, plus the wife getting hers they kind of all blur together after a few years. I have a garage full of racks though. I am going to need to start labeling them though so I know who shot what if we ever hang them up

Hello All,
Just want to say a quick hello from England. I have decided that I am not very photogenic therefore I am attaching photos with as little of me in as I can possibly get!
Here are a couple of pictures that prove that we can still shoot on this side of the pond (just)
First is my CE 44 K98-stretching its legs at 600 yards on my local fullbore range.
And my Parker Hale .451 Volunteer (the BSA Martini International on the next bench is mine as well)
