    That is big alright. Sean looks as though he had to hold his breath to lift it up.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Blooded my new Weihrauch .22 LR HW 60J tonight after a couple of great sighting in sessions. Wow, what a pleasure to shoot. Balance, trigger, mag feed ... everything! Didn't miss one bunny all night on CCI subsonics. Tx to Lee at Serious Shooters for putting the package together. Out of frame is the latest Hardy can. I think it might be louder than my MAE which (of course) is made from steel. I might do some tests if I can stop killing bunnies.
