- Thread starter manabeknives

Waiting for my patchworm to clean new rifle, too hot and humid plus it just finished raining which means them mosquitoes are out and about.

If your looking for those big let down days my (DA): day was a powder burner shoot.
I got together with my brother loaded up and drove thirty miles to the range. Parked moved the equipment, using a wagon, into check in, then out to our line, got all set up to find that I left the keys to the ammo box at home.

I used to sit at my desk on my lunch break, and shoot a pellet trap on the bookshelf across the room. Lol
Sometimes you just have to do whatever it takes.

It must be a cursed month
Woke up to with a terrible tooth ache, so made a dentist appointment to have it checked out ..broken tooth
Go down to start my car and get the click-click-click sound you get when your starter has broken -great
Had to call a taxi for the dentist.
dentist couldn't do anything because the area was infected, so i needed antibiotics
go to the pharmacy, and they are out to lunch
and still need to get the car fixed
Hope everyone else's day is running smoother

Well that tie into what kept me from shooting today, well aside for the storm with gusts higher than that ,that blew thru here.
BUT ! Downwind from a thick hedge and a big tree in a industrial area i did still manage to pull 3 dashcam systems ( 7 cameras in total ) and install 2 new systems ( 4 cameras in total )
Also ripped out a few years of cables from other systems, mostly power cable & source
Also installed a 4G Access point CUZ these new cameras are also of the smart type that will send notifications when parked if something happen.
Or you can remotely log into them to have a look around yourself.
The smart part though will have to wait until Wednesday evening when i get back home and the SIM card for the 4G have arrived.
Was so looking forward to shooting Mon - Tue, CUZ not long ago it looked to be almost 0 wind days, but now it have changed to Tue - Wed and with annoying high winds.
So my M8 that have borrowed my 40 X scope for his old .22 Cutlass, he will probably have some issues on 100 yards, me being the pea shooter i will probably not even try 100,,,, well maybe CUZ i do have some 13 grain slugs in the range bag, but pellet shooting was my target.

Sounds like a lot of work
But i would gladly do all the work in place of sitting in a dentist chair!
Try 100! ..you can make it work with the right slugs
I really want to try my Epoch with the 22.07g JTS pellets at 100 yrds
all the test shots have been very promising..benchrest potential
Depending if the car gets fixed ..hopefully, i will be shooting soon

Not too bad, in the past decade i have put in and taken out so many dashcams in my car, that i am sure by now if it is just a regular install powered from the sources in my glove box ( 12 V outlets ) i would be able to put in a system blindfolded.
O yes with the winds as expected to be now 13 grain Zans ahould do just fine, at least they use to be fine on the slightly shorter range of 86 Meters i use to shoot, now 93 Meters which i think are damn close to to be 100 yards so i call it that.
Ended up being 93 M by chance, it is actually the old 50 M target but now the new shot shed are moved back a lot.
Will have to visit dentist soon and have some of the work that's in there done, a Danish dentist will take 225 USD/h easy

Okay so the stats are in today for a windy yesterday
The average winds was 59.2 MPH and gusts hitting 78.2 MPH, that was actually the most windy summer day in Denmark in 34 years.
Mind you the surfers up at Cold Hawaii ( nickname for a little Danish town on the west coast of Jutland ) they was probably shredding it.
