Why so few range reports?

[Sir Henry]

Seems to be the same small group of folks that post up range fun with their Henrys or other firearms.

Get out and have some gun fun when you can with the Fall weather coming up and post up a report! Lots of Henry's collecting dust somewhere!
I'm heading out tomorrow with high temp around 70 which is great shootin' weather!

I shoot almost everyday. Plinking at spinners doesn’t really make all that great of report because it’s the same one of three firearms, same spinner, the same distance and the same tube or two of ammo. I’ll do this three to ten times a day.

Guilty as anyone, here. Just that most of my shooting over the summer has been airguns and I know that's of limited interest for most folks on the forum. Been meaning to get out and burn some powder, too, but we've been so busy with other summer activities.

I always enjoy your reports. To me it doesn’t matter if it’s bb’s or 45 70. Shooting is shooting. Especially if it’s a well written report like yours.

Practice makes perfect and great medicine for mind and body! I'll send you my Hatsan .30 cal break barrel. With that workout upper body strength would be greatly improved!

I am headed out today to test out my loads. I'll post up how it turns out.

Guilty as charged forty…

I haven’t been to the range for several months. Been busy with golf, camping and fishing plus doing the stuff around the house. BUT, this is the time of the year I tend to get more range time in. In fact, I have been doing a bit of a merry go round with some scopes and I know I have at least three rimfires that need sighting in. Soon baby soon.

I posted one middle of Aug., you never commented though.
Cooler weather coming more will get out.
I'm shooting the 38-55 off the deck now, but just ringing gongs.

Nice looking Marlin tho. Randy, what's the case length on those .38-55's? Are there two different lengths for it? Thanks.

I shoot the longer brass, the 2.125, as that's what the previous owner used and he shared his best load data with me.
I have around a hundred of the shorter 2.08 brass, but I've never tried those
If I had known how much fun this cal. was I'd of had one long before now.

My Crosman Shockwave is more than enough for me. So much so I prefer my Henrys.

Yeah, I thought maybe I read that before, just wasn't sure. Impressive round. Thanks Randy.
