I really like that pellet pouch. Just don't want to pay the price. I'm not a very experienced leather worker or I would make 6 for caliber/ gun changes. Be Well Brothers, Bandito.
lol. I get that. But I figured I already over spent on the HW95 for the Tune kit, the tuning, & the Walnut stock, and the moderator, sling, cheek riser, scope. What’s 40.00 more for a purdy pellet pouch😂😂
 
Nothing today, had to go in for a haircut, trip to postoffice and take wife grocery shopping. Temp was mid 90's and just felt HOT so stayed inside as much as possible. We are supposed to hit right at 100 the next few days then cool off for the following weekend, I hope.
Yeah the heat ain’t no joke!
You have an indoor range to pass the time?

The older I get, the more I hate 90 plus degs. I shot the 97K today and continued testing the new Garmin Xero, so far the prosport has the lowest ES and SD numbers.
 
I have one of the new HW95n, walnut models coming from AOA, scheduled for delivery today, If UPS keeps up their end I might be able to shoot it late today. I did order some pellets a couple of weeks ago from Pyramid, they went from Ohio, to Haslet, Tx (Fort Worth) then to Jacksonville, Fla,( destination is supposed to be Jacksonville, Texas), then back to Jackson, Ms, then back to Haslet, Tx, Fort Worth, and finally yesterday to Tyler, Tx, where it looks like they are being transferred to USPS. Supposed to delivere those Saturday.

That's crazy.
 
I had an order where I paid extra to go from Columbia Mo to north of KC. USPS took it to IL then Lenexa KS then to my home. It took so long I could have ridden my bicycle to Columbia, take a day's rest, then ridden home and be back a DAY earlier than USPS. That would be 4 riding days and one recovery day. Another time in the spring one year I was up in the night, completed an order by 0200, and later went to work. After a day of putting up with crooks in the prison I got home and there was a package by the door. I wondered what that could be. It was my standard shipping, UPS, from Midway @ 0200. The good bad and the ugly. UPS wrecked an old 24" wheel 1954 Schwinn bike that was properly packed in a BICYCLE SHIPPING BOX. Unassembled. It cost around $150.00 to get it put together again. ( bent fork etc ) Shipping arrrrgh! And now back to your regularly scheduled airgun stuff. Be Well Brothers, 'dito.

A little walk about today with the 1996 first year production R9 in .20 cal. Serial number 140xxxx!
Got this a few years ago as a basket case! Gentlemen disassembled it for a broken spring and couldn't get it back together! 🤪 I have it tuned to 13.5fpe with a nice tight bore and loves

FTTs.
Unfortunately no squirrels today but was a beautiful day in the woods!
 
Any day in the woods is a good day. Even rainy days. The wet leaves are silent and working slowly, stopping and waiting, the squirrels get casual on security. I am convinced you could sound like a whitetail cruising for acorns. If you get a squirrel down stay put. You will be surprised how fast the disturbance is disregarded by squirrels. Dead squirrels don't go very far.
If you get a bluejay out the squirrels are their sworn enemies. Watch them. Sometimes they stir the squirrels and you get another opportunity. Be Well Brothers, 'dito.
 
I would probably be hunting snakes in the woods anywhere I have lived, La, Ga, Tx, and Fla, and mky son's and sisters places in Miss, this time of year. As for bluejays and squirrels, they seem to coexist here, at least around our birdfeeder. I sometimes see bluejays, squirrels, cardinals, doves and an occasional crow there.

I don't know how many times another squirrel showed up to see what the racket was. Even with a RF .22. Deer too
