All of my target area is under six inches of snow. I have been spending most of my shooting time with a new Springfield Armory Prodigy double stack 9mm 1911 at the indoor range. Sorry to mention powder burners!

We have a freeze warning for Thursday and Friday nights. Welcome to winter!

I was blessed to have my agency buy most of my PB ammo for 38 years. Now being retired that benefit has gone away and I am amazed by some of the costs. I shoot a lot less with my PBs.

I realize my two Winchesters/Daisys and my Ruger/Umarex rifles are entry level springers. I inherited the Winchester made in Turkey from a very dear friend who passed away in April from cancer. I gained the other two for less than $150.00 and am having fun playing with them regardless how...

One pellet was just off the plate low.

Of course the best group was fired after I took the photo. Six inch plate with two inch orange dot.

I took the Winchester/Daisy made in China to the range yesterday. I shot five different pellets and got a promising group with Sig Target flat points. Since was shooting for group size I did not try to change the zero to the center of the target. I will work on that on Tuesday.

But I grew up here and I love it. I don't care what anyone else thinks.

Southeast Wyoming. Consistent wind, cold and snowy winters and the lowest state population in the US. No state income tax. I am retired so I can stay home when conditions get bad. I used to have to go out in the worst weather and work. Not any longer.

I got to spend an hour today in my portable shooting blind watching for ground squirrels. One showed me about two inches of his head and neck. After watching over ten minutes I figured I might as well take a shot. I heard the pellet hit but he dropped back down into his hole, so no recovery...

From the pictures, which one is the select one and which one is the regular stock. Each one is interesting, but different.

I am sure you spent enough days working that you could not relax. I certainly did so I too am enjoying retirement. I put another 50 pellets through the Ruger/Umarex. I tried three different pellets and I had at least one flyer more than three inches from the main group. I am hoping it will...

I live in Wyoming for a reason.

Enjoying a glass of bourbon while watching classic British mysteries. We have a 67 Mustang convertible in the shop next to a 64 F100 short box my father in law bought new.

Cold and rainy day in Wyoming today. I managed to shoot my first Winchester indoors at 50 feet. Inch and a half groups was the best I could do.

We have a couple of shelter mutts. A 8 year old Beagle and a 3 year old English Mastiff. Lots of fun! Both dressed up with their Cheyenne Frontier Days bandanas.

Unfortunately she retired.

Several years ago I asked my eye doctor how she could set up my glasses to enable me to see my front sight better. She asked me what distance from my eye was the front sight. I said about 6 inches beyond my hand. She asked me if I had my pistol available for a more accurate measurement. I...

I think I am getting a handle on shooting a springer!

Today our weather was warm and calm. I got to shoot the older Winchester/Daisy at 25 yards. I got a couple of good groups with Crossman Premier 7.7 grain hollow points and H & N Baracuda Hunter Extreme 9.57 grain pellets. Interesting how the point of impact is different from one pellet to the...
