Today I decided to scoot into town today because of the rain. I did manage to stop in AGS. Scored a tin of non lead in .177, .22 and .25. Never tried before. Also got 10 tins JSB 8.44 and an Element scope for a future rifle. On the way home I phoned the post office to see if they had a package...

How do I say this? I’m still in disbelief. I haven’t been shooting much, been preoccupied since early June finishing up on some serious landscaping. Working feverishly on it daily. Planted approximately 80 trees all together. Friday I get a card in mail box to go to Post Office to pick up a...

My power went out today in my area. Didn’t even notice it went out, my generator kicks in automatic ally. I go out one of my exits and there’s a hydro guy there. I go pick a load of soil and on way back the hydro guy stops me. “You hydro is on“ I didn’t know it was off. He said he had to reset...

Last week I stopped in the air gun shop as usual and scored a scope for a rifle on order. I see this big box by the door, but go home with my scope and rings. While working on my project all week I’m thinking about that box. In it a shooting table. This week I go there and the box is mine. A...

When it rains ,it pours. Haven’t seen many tree rats lately but today they came in forces. Battle stations. Out comes the HW98 .177. 5 shots and 5 invaders eliminated. Two did a dance. Had these pests inside my house before, that’s why I got into Springers. Crow

Having a Java with the wife, I hear a knock at the door. UPS, I put the box against the wall and proceeded to my coffee, wondering what the wife bought. 1/2 hour later I go open the box it and took about a NY second it was my 50. 125 yr. Ann.This is right out of the box. )Can’t believe it came...

Yesterday was special to me. Didn’t think I would live past 30, yesterday turned 70. Had company and a busy day but still squeezed time to check the used guns. Bought a HW77 special edition .22 used, to mark the celebration. Love those 77’s. He’s going to ship on Monday. Starting off by...

I was able to sneak away a go to my buddies place up north. Last time I was there we cut down about a dozen trees to open his range. What a difference. That bug thing under the tripod was flawless, not one bug. He now has targets back to 72 yds. He only shoots iron sights but rim fire. I bought...

I’ve got time on my hands. If I can’t work on yard I’m shooting. This is my possy this morning. Started off with “Greeny” named after Peter Green’s guitar, originator of Fleetwood Mac. This gun almost shots like his guitar playing. My bells took a beating. Another long barrel .22 cal. This gun...

Yesterday I had lazer surgery on my shooting eye. A few months ago I kept cleaning my glasses, until I realized it wasn’t my glasses. Went got eyes checked. Cataracts. Right eye , my shooter eye. If I waited much longer I’d be using a white cane. Today I shot a R9 and a HW98 both .20 cal. Wow...

Love rain days. This morning I shot 3 guns in common with the Weihrauch stainless version. It sure is a durable finish. And for a change they look good, they dress up nicely. ‘First up is a gem HW97 .20. If I notched this for tree rats, it would be saw dust. A gun you can measure everything to...

Today was cleanup time on the range after winter. Here’s what I started with. Just a mess. Broken pole. Went and got the tools on this gorgeous day and started taking things down and raking. The Kabota saves the day. Still shovelled almost 4 tons of stone and dirt. I’ll sleep tonite. It’s hard...

If anyone wants a great deal on a 10 inch target with stand all hardware and stencils. $65. Spend over $150. free delivery. In Canada. If they ship over border would be about 45 US. I scooped 4. My buddy got one , impressive deal. I like the fact easy to move around. Crow

Took a trip up north to my buddies today. We worked on his range. Here’s a before pic. I cut at least a dozen trees down to open things up. What a difference. Unfortunately every tree hung up and had to chop 4-5 ft. off at a time and let it drop. This is finished, got 68 yds. cleared so far...

I’ve got 3 rifles that are major loopers. HW77k, HW97k both .25 and HW30 .22. They’re my favorites for plinking. I scored 10 tens of lead .25 cal. yesterday to meet demands. You shoot, it’s like a delay action when finally hitting their mark. Also more often than not you can watch its path...

A week ago I took delivery of 3 rifles. Everyone is happy. Just my luck the next day Friday I see an add for this. A HW77 tuned by Venum. Had to act fast.Very touchy situation, and I knew it. I was scared. I mentioned to my wife there was a really nice rifle for sale. I got that “your dead“ look...

I was bitten by the bug again. These were available for a while. I’ve been painting my interior house, nasty job. Got the itch last week. A box arrived today. A box inside the box I scored a HW 50 .177 1972 with an inscription. Hope it’s true. It’s a beater. This doesn’t have barrel droop, it...

Drove to the Post Office in town. Walked out with a long heavy box. It was my first stop of a 7 hour journey. Drove me crazy to have it behind me all day, whispering to me. Got home. After unpacking and sit down with a coffee, I finally check it out. I give my rifles a name and this one is...

I used to down hill ski, Eastern Townships Quebec or Jay Peek. Used to really enjoy spring skiing, icey granulars and warm sun shine. Well I know it’s still winter but the weather around here has been just that. Last week and the week before was just that as well. I put in nearly 40 hrs. on my...

Just picked up an order I made. Ordered 4 sets of Vortek springs on Dec. 26th. I thought they were lost. Ordered springs from the UK 2 days after the Vortek order, got it 2 weeks ago. I could have driven there (Vortek)in just over 6 1/2 hours. The Pony Express would have been faster. Month + is...
