Thats a 4 inch Oak 30 seconds and cuts on pull. So easy. 24 inch blade. Copy of a Silkie. Lee Valley has them. Going to shoot this after noon. Crow

I have a big soft spot for sharp, beautiful handsaws….a joy to use. John
 
I got some time on range building. A tree that fell I have it balanced at the top. It was a main support before. Cut the face flat so I could screw brackets to it.

Weathers been trying to rain and that it did.
The tree that fell, I cut off the hydro wires disrupted the hill and sent rock and dirt down the bank. Bit of a mess . Crow
 
few days ago shot new to me 1930's BSA .177 was shooting about 8 inches low of POA jump to today and shot the same low, so i randomly adjusted the rear sight up about 3/16 " /about 8 turns of the screw , BAM three pellets dead center ! I wasn't even paying attention Figured i would be way high .

I pulled out my practically new Diana 48. I detuned it with a 19 ft lb vortex kit. Got it below 1100 fps .
Freaking cannon. It still kicks but dang it can shoot. I put a 16x scope in it and sighted it in. Took a couple shots to find the bullseye. Then just started stacking. I have three underlevers for people to try. The Browning leverage, the Diana 48 and a tuned Tx200. All are so totally different. But they all put five shout under a dime.

I’m so amazed the union of the metal to the wood survived. Love the looks of your rifle. BSA is such a cool name.
‘Never forget back in the 60’s everyone had Honda 70’s and 90’s. My buddy Neil, only child got a BSA 250. Man was he king. Neil had the only Crosman 2240 .22 cal. pumper as well. Crow
