    Had a good night out last night. Rushed out straight after work, grabbed the 17HMR and got shooting.

    Got 6 all up.

    Way to go Turner!
    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

    I've been tossing up whether to get one of those or spent $170 more and get the Henry. They look like real good fun.

    I went out to a really open local farm after team for a quick shoot. Way out of 17HMR range and my 223 isn't up and running yet so I grabbed the 7mm08.

    I was hoping the thing would vaporise but the big 140 grain bullets I'm using nowdays aren't designed to explode on such little tiny targets.

    Lasered at 280m. That crap Bushnell I have on it goes up to 24x but it's almost a waste of time. I'm going to put my 6-20 grand slam on it and bring another one for the 223 in I think.
