@Bruce remember when the both of them @Latestarter and @Rammy said that they are set in their ways, blah blah blah? If they get married and live together, I'd like to see the "reality" show of them. :gig
Probably would be titled Battles of the Not so Rich and Not Famous. haha.....:lol:

If you were closer, I'd let you try my .243... More than adequate to put down a deer and very little kick. Nice flat shooter too. Both my daughters became quite proficient with it. Even an AR doesn't kick too bad (5.56mm or a .223 round). Wouldn't have you try out my .300 Weatherby magnum rifle right off the bat ;)

Sorry for the hijack Al...
Mary Howitt..is that you?

My sis-in-law has a Weatherby .340 she uses, tho her go to is a .243.
Her on the end with her .243.

I've shot the .340...it's a real handful, even with the muzzle brake. My wife has shot my .270 successfully without breaking anything (or hitting anything either) but she's shot hundreds of 7.62 rounds thru my SKS and can handle it pretty good.
All the ladies in my family use firearms. Christmas Day afternoon 2015. My youngest older sister CCs a 9mm. Both her daughters CC Ruger Americans in .45. They're waiting for the end of the long gun portion so we can all move down to the pistol targets.

My wife on the end at another gathering we had here in (I think) early 2017..guys-n-girls from our car club. My wife is on the end burning thru some 300 blackout rounds on a tannerite target.

I enjoy shooting guns but stick to handguns. Never hunted. We do have a shotgun and a rifle is on the list of things to acquire. We have a couple handguns floating around. DH CCs quite a bit. I have my license but can’t carry to work (healthcare.)

A very belated winter showed up...

:barnie

The cross on our church broke this spring... took us all summer to plan, design, build, and then do a jillion layers of filler over all less than smooth spots, primer and marine grade paint.

Tried to get it up there... and found out that more was wrong than we thought.

Had to take the dome down, we will have to scrape out rot and use wood filler to build up the rotted pieces...

Wood filler says "use at temps between 50 and 90"

:he

With all of the heaters going in the shop we got it up to 32F. :th

Kids are now setting up a tent... we are going to see if we stick it in a tent... if we can get the tent up to 50.

And nah... can't get it in the house, no way will it fit through the door.
