Too Wet

Post by Shakey Jake » Sun Jan 26, 2020 12:59 pm

I was going to do some plinking today but we got a lot of rain last night. The range would be just too darn soggy to set up targets. I'll have to wait until it dries up. In the meantime let's see some targets from those who were able to get out!

Kinda watching the weather myself as I was planning on shooting today as well but rain is predicted and with the melting snow it might be a muddy drive to my spot.

Blue sky now but that can change quickly!

Our range was pretty muddy yesterday too. Unusual for January.

Soggy is normal for here. Delivered a bunch of trimmings to the spring time burn pile and while out drove the gator around to have a look at the more remote areas. Way more soggy than usual. Also, my nephew borrowed the tractor for some driveway work at his place. He drove it across one of our lower lawn areas leaving deep ruts. If not for the duallies he'd have buried it.

Been pretty wet here also, but
I did ease over to the barn yesterday later afternoon and did check out a load right quick, in the 44 BBB.
All shots 50yds, the load was 19.5 of 2400, and a 250 gr Keith style bullet, the first pic. I shot the lower group first, then the second pic with some 245 gr gas checked hp's, then the 4 shot group in first. One bad primer.
