trigger time - Gussy - 04-14-2015

It's an 1885....but not black powder!Rolleyes

Loading the 22 Hornet for a sage rat hunt in ID. We will be going very early Thurs and back late Fri. At least I'll get some trigger time off cross sticks!! (might also have a black .22 ruger alongConfused)

A Win .22 1885 low wall with Browning BPCR sights might also be making the trip> Depends on how much stuff I can haul along!

Have fun. We were shooting prairie dogs the other day using our 22 bpcr match rifles.

Wow, we parked in the same spot for 2 part days (about 5 hrs each day), 300 .22 shells in about 10 hours and never walked more than 1/2 mile from the truck. Shots varied but most were 40-70 yds and I never got out a center fire. BLM land in S Idaho.

I bought 3 cartons of the Fed auto match and none of my rifles seemed to like it. I only used a ruger and it liked the cheap Fed shells best??

I've shot some pretty good match scores with the Federal bulk box ammo in the Winchester lowall.
