Range Report: daily plinking

[Vaquero]

Never shot or handled a BL, but my friend that lived in Fla. had a Winchester 9422 that was butterly smooth and shot well.
Ever since I've wanted one, but they do demand a premium price.
That and I've never seen one locally that was for sale.

This thread was two pages back on ‘my posts’ meaning it’s been too long since I’ve plinked. I got home from the hospital two weeks ago today and have been pre-occupied with my garage project.

This morning‘s shooter was this Winchester single shot 68. It’s fun to get into the rhythm of loading and cocking in two separate steps. Since it was warm and sunny with no wind I took my time and shot at the gongs offhand at 35 yards. It took me five shots to hit the first time then I hit it again almost every time. I don’t think I missed twice in a row in the 50 or so shots I made.

I keep telling myself I need to bench shoot this on paper but walking outside still in my pj’s in the early morning sun makes me lazy and the prep time for plinking is zero.
