No roads, long way to pack!

I shoot my #1 257 quite a lot, she doesn't like anything over 110s. Sending her off this spring to get turned into 257 ackly improved. My mom was shooting 120s out of her 257, Remington 722. She got the rifle in the late 50s when we were in Alaska. She killed Caribou in Alaska and deer and elk...

Put the gun away and did a hike with the dogs. Only saw a few birds. Lows in the...

Well we’ve been here 10 days or so. First two were kinda cold in the morning but otherwise it’s been pretty damn nice. Doing Another little remodel on our little house, should have that done by the end of the week. I’ve only been up to Tucson trap and skeet once but I was shooting pretty good...
