Or what I hear a lot over here is our two seasons, Snow and No Snow, but NO Snow is only long enough to repair your snow blower before we get back to Snow.

Summers are actually nice. Spring and fall seems like they lasted one week. I ventured out and shot more going in and out of the house several times. Then I took a long nap under an electric blanket. My bones don’t like the cold like when I was young.North Country Gal wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 4:19 pmOr what I hear a lot over here is our two seasons, Snow and No Snow, but NO Snow is only long enough to repair your snow blower before we get back to Snow.

Very true. Spring and fall can be short to basically nothing at all, up here. I've seen some springs that went from snow to 90 degrees In just 10 days.

Re: Range Report: this is the life!
I shot again this morning. All .22LR pistols.
First up was my Mares Leg. I didn’t realize how nice the trigger was till I shot the Sportsman immediately after shooting it.
The trigger is really a hard pull even in SA on this Sportsman. I think I may not have noticed it before because I normally shoot close up. Today I was shooting both 25 and 35 yards which requires a bit more skill. Didn’t hit any metal.
I only shot the 11”x11” trap at 25 yards with this Ruger. I missed the first shot then hit the next five.
Both the Ruger and this Uberti have nice triggers. I only hit the trap twice out of five shots. The sixth was shot at the berm and I could see it hit the sno about two feet high and to the right at 50 yards. I think it’s more me today than the pistol.
No six feet of snow here although I should be shoveling and not shooting.
