Not to many out today. Trudging through the 10" or so of snow plus the drifts.
Three hearty souls out there at 10:00. 22˚ felt like 14. Wind was blocked so it was quite tolerable.

our range was closed today. It's 28 degrees and 20mph wind. Chilly! So, I'm loading 30 caliber for Sunday at the range.

It was damp and 40-ish all day, but got a lot of trigger time anyway. Sent about 4-500 rounds downrange at paper and gongs. We pay for it in the summer, but not many days the rest of the year here that aren't at least passable to go shooting.

Not too bad here, but I don't know specifics. Can't shoot though. Wife had a knee replacement yesterday; shooting is not welcomed at the hospital. Dammit.

I did start a mango-peach cider kit though. Already bubbling.

50 degrees
rain finally stopped after 2 weeks
2 days out of 14 without rain
Fired 20 rds of assorted 12 ga and 4 slugs to sort out new dp-12 shotgun
Great pattern with 7.5s at 35 yds and handloaded buckshot. Handloaded slugs going to take some development
Was real surprised

You folks in Idaho and Washington have lots cold. Wanted to get out today. With the bright sun it would be blinding looking over it.
Errands. May try and score another pound of powder.

Lots of warm down under at present
Currently 105, last few days have been 101, 100, 102 & 96, a change due to arrive tomorrow with a top of only 91 but overnight predicted minimum is 80.

Yep, I'm getting tired of the heat waves! Our range has been closed on a couple of our scheduled shoots due to extreme conditions. Roll on Autumn, is what I say.

Not a bad day at the range yesterday. 60F with no clouds and light winds. Didn't even need a change of shirts when done. It's different in the summer. Come off the range drenched.

Highs in the 20's. Too lazy to shoot but need to reload a few thousand shells for this years trap shooting.
