I stand for the flag, and kneel for my fallen brothers.

Ahh, you know us California types. Gets over 72, A/C goes on. Down to 68, heater. Well, not really. Just wanted to make you fellers feel better! About 87 right now. In the garage turning an old jack stand into a rifle rest. A little paint and this may just work like I hope. We'll see.

Just took my pups outside. Smarter then me, they turned around and went back in.

I'm back at the bench setting up the progressive for some .223

I'll see what I can do r-n-g. Not too hot at posting pics. Looking around for some sort of padding for the top. Have an idea or two.

LOL, Mar. & July are two different animals. You're right about the humidity. Much more than Ari. Over 100 here for several days.
I'm ready for some good old Fall weather.
I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

I'd never thought about using that for a rest. See no reason why not. Thanks for the idea, Tom.
