Have traveled some in that country. There are some really, really WIDE open spaces, there, and if you want to get away from the crowds, good place to do it.

One piece of property I wish I could afford was 1040 acres of hunting/grazing hill country for $520,000. Another much smaller piece, 129 acres for $229,000.

I could have one heck of a big shooting range and a good size hole for:

I finished my backyard range and seldom use it. I’ve been landscaping all summer. The only trigger time I get is on rabbits.

I have my indoor range in the basement. It gets a little use now and then. I have revived the air gun range at my parents place.

Can't stress enough what a huge advantage for a shooting nut like me to be able to shoot air guns right at home. It's the only way I can shoot on a regular basis during our long, cold and snowy winters.

Did you see NCG the shoebox compressors are now in stock at Pyramid Air. There could be decisions to be made.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I see they went out of stock very quickly and now wont be back until November. But there is 4 reviews there that are all 5 star. Im really interested in the Fortitude rifle and one of those compressors. Being able to get 70 shots from one fill is kinda nice.
