[Joe Haller]

The one and only "Iowa Shooter"

Had to turn SOMETHING in!

25 yards
238-9X Ron Starner Indianola, Iowa (Antlurz)
10/22, GM barrel, Tasco 6X24X40, Wolf MT
All the normal 10/22 mods. Clouds, 33 degrees, switching 25-30 mph winds, spitting rain. Other than that, it was nice out. Total shots fired for the month = 27

If it wasn't for the X's, I don't think I would have even turned a score it this month!

27 shots---that what I call a cheap month, ammo wise. Too cold of weather for this Tx. boy.

Ron, a good x count always makes you feel better.

True on the X counts, but after knowing what I have done and consider "normal" for me, that wasn't too condusive to building my self esteem

(I'll take it!)

I almost went out a couple days back. It was low single digits, but the sun was shining and the air was dead still. the reason I didn't was I didn't feel like getting my hands all wet moving snow, so I wussssed out...

Besides that, a wet (after your butt warms it up)bench to sit on isn't all that inviting in that kind of weather!

 

[050]

S'peshully if'n yer butt freezes to the bench. Wors'n the ol' tongue on the flagpole....Tongues don't have much hair on em'...Nutin' worse than a hairy butt froze to a bench, I'm tellin' ya! JL aka HB
