THE CZickness XLVIII....."The Holidays are Coming" edition...

[Born2vette]

Got the new to me Rami out today. Still getting the feel for it but not too bad of an outing.

This was four 3 shot groups: Double tap to chest (DA 1st shot, SA 2nd) and then slower 3rd SA head shot all at 7 yds


17 yds, slow fire



did some one handed work at 7 yds today also with both 10 rnd and 14 rnd mags. Nothing to write home about. First shot DA on all targets, 5 shot groups


Edit: getting a bit of trigger bite. Need to talk to the Wizard about an 85 combat trigger for it.

Yes, but only on Mondays.

That would explain why your better half sends you to the range on Mondays.

She's at work on Mondays. My four hands and myself are free to do whatever we want.

Gmcttr will be along shortly to ask about your additional hands and why one is slower than the others.

I know, when my grips come in i'll post a pic, it came with old Pachmayrs which I ditched.

A nice buck just crossed the driveway close to my house. Had his nose to the ground. I wonder what he was following?

I saved my best targets for later after my company leaves. Y'all be ready.

I never saw a thing. Threw in the towel around 4:45 to get home in time to do bath and bedtime with the kids.

I’ve wanted a Ruger Mark IV 22/45 for a long time now and found this one about a month ago for a good deal. And just added the Holosun. It’s an awesome little package and I’m looking forward to using it to teach my wife and kids to shoot. The bottom one is my Kimber Micro 9 ESV that is my dedicated carry. I have a thing for black and gold! I love that color combo!

Nice evening saw one large six and a doe. Plenty of large woodpeckers and an owl. It was a good hunt, none of these animals knew I was there and the deer were feeding directly under my stand. Sighted the scope several times on the buck, he walked over to a tree about 20 yards away and rubbed it like crazy, then ate bark he had rubbed off, something I have never seen them do.

Besides his left and his right, I think he calls the slow one Pointer Sisters and the cool one Luke.

Stay later if possible. Ive seen lots of movement in those minutes just before the dawn. 530-6 is primetime.

Minty fresh I hope. Was it a cedar?

Decided to do some testing of different bench rest setups today with my 457. This was not what I originally had planned, but it turned out to be a fun comparison.

Setup 1) Front and rear Wiebad bags, with a 3" wide front bag rider attached to the forend of the rifle.



Setup 2) Rock BR front rest, protektor silver slick flat front rest w/3" bag rider, rear Protektor silver slick Dr rest.




Setup 3) Atlas Cal bipod on front, rear Wiebad bag, Midway shooting mat strapped down to bench. The mat has pockets at the front that the bipod legs can be pushed against. I would have preferred a 2x4 clamped to the bench instead of the mat pockets, but I used what I had with me.

After dinner I enjoyed a big mug of mulled wine...

I need me some old man wisdom...

So the gift dilemma from a few weeks ago... its an IPhone... I hate Iphone. I found out when I called my wife to let her know I was going to pick up the new Samsung because my 4-5year old phone is on its last legs... I am completely set up for android. Tablet, earbuds, headphones, laptop 100 chargers. Not sure how to play this. I'm trying to be appreciative, but a $1200 otd iphone vs. $400 galaxy s22 ultra with my trade in... I know she meant the absolute best, and I love her for it.

Take it back. Buy the Samsung. Use the rest to get a gun you want.
Kiss your wife and tell her thank you. It's just what I wanted.

Luv you, Honey.

I saw 5 does just off the road near Cool Creek Park at dusk. They like it near here, harvested fields to graze, grass, no hunting.

Yeah I know. Saw 2 deer in a field on the drive home. Bedtime has been a fight/tantrum lately with the 4yo...didn't want to leave the Mrs stranded.
