Our 45th Wedding Anniversary! I suggested we go shoot 45s to celebrate. That idea went well; like a squib. :lol:

That's the plan. My grandparents on my dad's side almost made it to 75, before my granddad passed away. Thanks again!

I take that back. There is a .470, .475 and .480 as well.

I think the closest is .460. Then .50. So 3 more years to go! :P

Thanks! Well, for that I'd have to actively hunt them, than pick them off as they go by. I did get one the other day with my Henry. Another swam by yesterday, but the Henry wasn't ready (neither was the Uberti). So only 44 to go. :D

Sounds to me like you need another Henry there so you always have one ready. Maybe a new Henry for the anniversary

Funny you should mention that. Came up yesterday when we were talking about going to Coastal Farm to buy the good stuff Roundup. Mentioned also going to the back of the store to look at guns and the Long Rangers. Seemed like my CFO was thinking about that - getting one.
