    I'm sure that everyoone is tiring of my 'old man' problems ..... and I don't blame you.
    It is wearing. I was in a doctors office yesterday, a dentist office yesterday (long visit), and another doctor's office today !
    So .... all that I'm going to report from now on is: I'm still alive ! :alright:

    Here's another photo from last weekend. Dang, with the upcoming weather system next week, I'll have to go back and drain the water system.

    I finally got the Ruger 10/22 back out to shoot today. It’s been years. Way too many years. It shoots surprisingly well for a mostly stock rifle. But today it didn’t do as well as I remembered. I think I was the limiting factor for the rifle. I forgot to take my rest and was shooting off of the cheap bi-pod. Also, the guy on the bench next to me was shooting a 300 Win Mag with a loudenator on it. That made me double up on the hearing protection and I was having a hard time getting a good sight picture through the scope with my ear muffs on. SK Target did ok. CCI Stingers also gave some decent groups for not being match ammo. All 5 shot groups at 25 yards. Decent but not good enough to nail the 10 ring on score cards at 50 yards. I need to give it another go with a better rest and sight picture next time. I was hitting just low and left of POA.

    The rifle started as a Ruger SR-22, the 10/22 that came in an AR style stock with a 16”, 3/4” semi-bull barrel. I hated that stock and swapped it out for a Tactical Solutions laminated thumb hole stock that showed up in the classifieds. What ticked me off on the AR style stock is that Ruger made an extra top cover to the stock that the scope mounted to. So every time I wanted to take the action out of the stock to clean it, I had to remove the scope and top cover. That’s part of why it got shot so little. I also changed the stock birdcage flash hider for one I found at a gun show, just because it looks better. But otherwise it’s a stock action and barrel.

    I have been wondering how your dental troubles were going...

    Looks like next week is going to be a big shift in weather.

    And I’m pleased to announce, The Wizard will be her new caretaker.

    BA left her to me to me to take care of for awhile. I think he wanted her to see some of Texas.
    I’m gonna let her tear up Packindy’s plate rack this weekend, then she is going home to the Wizard.
