Re: Our serious fun guns
I have looked at some SASS type clubs here but I am not a fan of frantic competition anymore either. I used to rodeo in timed events, but as mentioned I like to compete and challenge myself now, and more importantly just go out and shoot. I wish sometimes that I was more gun savvy as far as chronos, velocities, etc....but it's just not me. Probably why I don't reload.
So yes, let's get out this year and really enjoy our beautiful firearms.

Love the Browning! I shoot lever action silhouette and the little Browning is a legal rifle for small bore matches, with peep sight. I've been looking for an alternative to my Henry - just for the fun of it.
I'll be looking for a Browning now!
Thanks for sharing,
Michael

Re: Our serious fun guns
Didn't know that, so thanks for the update.
One thing I like about the Browning rimfire line is that they are really built around the 22 LR as far as their proportions. You won't find a centerfire counterpart, meaning a Browning 22 LR is not a centerfire gun modified to shoot the 22 LR, as some 22 LRs are. Even their T-bolts are sweet handling rimfire sized rifles.
