Finally made it out to the desert. What perfect weather; 74F, no wind at all and just the three of us. I only took three guns, my Pietta .45 Colt, Mod 94 30-30 and a CZ 452 Scout to zero a scope for my wife to shoot. For three guys, we brought the armory! my three, Mark's five and Chris' ten. Shooting, BS'ing, looking at all the guns. What a day. Have to say, I was most happy with my 30-30. At the 130 yard, 8" plate, it never missed. Stoked! Actually, we all shot pretty darn good. Chris is a way better S/A revolver shooter than I am. Who cares. Having a ball. Took a couple of pics, but, you know me.
Damn dinosaur. Doing it again in a couple weeks.
Guess who just had a birthday? We did. Henry Rifle Forums has made it to the 10 year mark. Thank you to all members, I'm glad you are here!

Sounds like a fun day and you had sunshine to boot, I'm envious.

Re: 2022 Desert shoot.
Sounds like a great time there Tom, Hey,
How about sending some of the 70+ degree weather this way bud.
I can post the pics if you want to text 'em to me.

Re: 2022 Desert shoot.
Nice ...... not surprised at the performance of your 94 .... ours is old but handles well and is very accurate

Re: 2022 Desert shoot.
Now we're talking! First pic is Mark shooting his Henry .22, second couple is Chris getting Marlin '94 in .41 mag ready[ dang accurate that .41 is!].
Our down range targets, if you can pick them out: 50 yards, 80 yards and 130 yards. We had a great time in the desert. Thanks a ton to Randy for posting these, I really appreciate the picture help I get here. This forum is the best!
