It was yesterday at our monthly fun shoot in Cross, S.C. I took 11 gun but only shot 3 and a Cometa made RWS 93 I bought from a bud that morning. Nice gun! The others were a Hammerli X2 dual cal (Mendoza) I bought a month ago from MM and a Beeman double barrel 2016W .177/.22. That's the one shoots the different barrels individually. The other was an old Beeman RS2 dual cal. I modded with 5 slot 4 rail barrel mounts and BSA 4X32 pistol scopes so I can change barrels without having to re-zero. Had to cut 3 inches off the front of the stock so I could cock it and some off the back to get the eye relief right. Painted it with bed liner and stuck a slip on recoil pad. Had nicer guns still in the car but it got so hot and the nats got so thick we had to quit early. Good stuff with good friends.
Late last night...may have been close to midnight so hope it counts lolShooting my new Hatsan AT44S-10QE in .22 with one of my buddies. Distance of just under 25 feet, nothing remarkable for distance I know. The cool part about this was this 8 shot group, 5 shots by him and 3 by me. He thought he wasn't hitting anywhere near the target since we were sighting in the scope, so I took the last few shots. (Ignore the overlay of the other target, we were shooting a bunch more with our new CCS 2400KT's and forgot to get a pic until this morning).

I did manage eat the butt out of a Subway steak and pimento sandwich.
I have been working different hours after opening a new grocery store, but, I did finally manage to get one of the three ground hogs wrecking havoc in our gardens. As a bonus I picked off a troublesome red tree nutter ( one of too many trying to get into my house).

Did you share any with Rambo?Not sharing with Rambo is not an option around here. That dude has a personality like none other that I've seen. He will sit and follow your food from your plate to your mouth with nothing but his huge brown eyes. If you look at him he instantly diverts those eyes without moving his head. As soon as you look away he is back to watching. If he knows there is a pack of saltine crackers on the side table he will shift those eyes between you and the crackers until you offer him one. He has had all but 5" of his tail cropped. He does not wag his tail, he shakes his whole back end. He is 75 lbs of solid dog. If you ignore him, he will stomp his front feet. And he tells us when it's time to go to bed.
Finally got some time to shoot today. Shot the Taipan Veteran .25, Airforce Condor .25 and the Texan .45. Spent more time talking than shooting with GTA members sfttailrdr46, Don, and crittahitta, Tom. Really nice to meet you guys, it was pleasure shooting with you!
Our heat index is thru the roof here in Lower Alabama. It's just no fun running out for 5 shots and then running back into the AC. Not to mention fighting the glasses fogging each time.
