When I was in my early 20s (40 years ago), a buddy and I used to reload 30.06 with lighter weight bullets for prairie dog shoots. I don't recall what gun he was shooting; mine was a Remington Model 700BDL with a 40mm 4X Redfield scope. We got to where we could hit them pretty good at 200 yards shooting from the loft of a barn with the rifles sitting on sandbags on top of bales of hay. The prairie dog town didn't go much beyond that distance as the farmer who owned the land kept it plowed down and planted in various crops throughout the year and there weren't many good vantage point from whi -

I'd just throw my hands in the air and give up... Fine, take'em all, I'm too old & tired to fight over it and jump through more hoops. And if you believe that... Let me tell you about this bridge I have for sale. Is that the same bridge from LA to Hawaii that God agreed to build in lieu of writing a book on how to understand women? -

that's just wrong on so may levels. by the time I got through all the BS pop-ups I was already planning my stories on how my guns just could not be found no matter how hard I looked. -

The title's a bit of a double entendre. My first thought when I read the title was, "did it hurt much?" -

Well, finally got to take this rig out to the range today. It was obvious from the git-go that the red dot was mounted way to low. I had visited with a person at work who has considerable experience with these things and was told he had the same problem which the resolved with a simple riser. That said, I loaded up 10 rounds and fired the first shot from 50 yards at a 7.5" circular target printed on 8.5 x 11 paper. I did not even hit the paper and found it quite difficult to even tilt my head enough to see the dot and target clearly at the same time. Next, I hung a full sized silhouet

What does your screenname mean?

First used it not long after I bought my first motorcycle in almost 20 years. In April of 2000 I brought home a still new BMW R1200C. Although the C actually stood for Custom according to BMW literature, it didn't take long for this obviously cruiser style bike to become the BMW cruiser. As was normal for that era on the Interweeb, a special interest website for the model was in full operation which I promptly joined using the name "cruisin", I've been using that name (or some iteration; cruisinTx2) on every website since. The name also fit nicely with my other passion; sailing on my Cata -

Nope. I looked at it wrong and thought it had an inline 4 and suzuki lines from ~83 or so. My bad. your bike is cooler though. thanks; it fits nicely in the stable with my "Y2K" collection = R1200C, R1100RT and R1100S all from the 2000 model year. -
