keep hearing choppers flying overhead. can't be for the flood waters can it? I did take a drive and in the 10 years I have been here I've never seen the "normal" areas flood so high.

That would be my guess...although I like Uncle Mike's theory better.

 

[stilllearning09]

I took the bike out and rode around a few of the subdivisions. Lots of roads blocked off and homes pumping out water.

Hope it doesn't last long. Does Tyler still have your genny?

BTW, I now have at least 2 rifles that I need to sight in now.

Very nice! I need to sight in one or two myself. I just need time to do it.

 

[hotfarmboy1]

I think I saw an ark float by.

Who needs an ark when I have 3 boats here on the farm.

That's part of getting older.
Not that you're old Mrs G.

You have some Glass for them yet?

Let me know as well, and I can bring my boresight out or just let you borrow it if I can't make it

I've had a Marlin model 60 for a long time that I just haven't gotten the scope fully dialed in yet. Its pretty close though.

The Ruger SR-22 that I just got recently just has a red dot and some iron sights that need to be zeroed. The front and rear sights didn't quite match up. I made some modifications and I'm gonna try again. If I still can't get it right, I'm gonna get different sights.

The Remmy 700 I'm picking up tonight is gonna have a basic Remington brand 4-12x40 on it.

I can't really do anything yet because I'm waiting for the .308 ammo I ordered to come in. I'd like to take you up on your offer though so I'll keep in touch with you and the Kinnard's compound and hopefully we can work something out.

BTW, are you planning on going to the long range shoot?

It's good for you, after what you've been through the last week or so. You'll stop when your body doesn't need it any more.

If you need a spotter Supr, just give me a shout. Im free most days, relatively cheap the others.

Sounds good. It better be pretty cheap though because so am I.

 

[Cru]

I lucked out when zeroing my .308.. (I think you may have been there) it only took One shot to see where I was hitting, and one shot to verify the adjusted zero.

Pure luck, not trying to claim skill in that.

I used some inexpensive ammo from Wal-mart. It held pretty close for the match ammo I tried as well.

 

[Suprtek]

Yup, I was there. And I was jealous. Maybe I'll have a little luck too. The .308 I ordered was some British surplus stuff. The little bit of research I did on it seems to indicate that its pretty good.

We’ll get it straightened out I’m sure. After all, we have over 5k posts each thus making us firearms experts.
