Just glad the dumb ass didn't end up hurting anyone.

I was planning to shoot today, but after church first I fed the cows, then started cutting and splitting a couple of ash borer killed trees, and next thing you know-it's getting dark. Well, there's always next month!

Combination of bad luck, stupid luck and loose nut on the trigger.

The loose nut and his buddy were target shooting in his back pasture.
 The round traveled off his acreage, across & through the wooded & vacant 5-acre track behind his place
cross the road, and 300 feet of my semi wooded acreage, hitting the Bay window. (Distance is 1300 feet)
The spent round & jacket were found on my window seat.

Sheriff report says no malice intended after interviewing him just a dumb ass,
 So, the guy said he'd pay damages, about $700.

Gentlemen, You've got until the 31st to shoot the March Postal Match.  I went out and shot today.  Let's just say I can use some practice!

Niederlander, I will send you my targets for March later today or tomorrow.  The match is always fun to shoot and I am surprised that more folks don't shoot it. 
It would help if I had better zero's before I put one down for record, but by the time I put 20 holes in the target I have a pretty good idea where my guns shoot.
This time I shot my Company G, 12th Illinois Cavalry carbine and my 8th US Cavalry SAA.  Fun stuff!

I always enjoy it, even if I don't shoot particularly well.  It's great motivation to practice more!

I shot the March postal match today (March 29) and will mail the targets tomorrow (March 30).  It was 40 F and windy, looking forward to warmer weather.  This month has been very busy with the 2022 NCOWS National Convention.

Just a few days to get your Postal Match shooting done for April, Gentlemen!  Remember, you can e-mail me pictures of your targets so I can score them.  Saves postage!

Well there is always May.  April was a hectic month. 
I should have been practicing the whole month of April so I could jump into the May match in top shape.

I shot mine today.  I shoot very consistent scores with the rifle.  Notice I didn't say good, but consistent.  I did shoot it with my newly re-barreled Krag carbine.  I'm REALLY liking that cute little thing!
