    Spent shells are just another form of litter Rushy. Therefore, I pick them up. Trying to be a tidy Kiwi (pomwi)

    I understand that Pengy. I pick them up as well. Just don't keep it.

    The tricky bit I find is that I accumulate the brass faster than I shoot the rounds. Must be time for another big reloading session or four.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    It is my first brand new remington centerfire last one was a 788 and it is my first rifle that cost more than $800 even though I got it on HP I thought it was about bloody time to get out of the cheap seats and into something better I was wanting a ruger M77 the remington was the first model 700 I have shouldered and it fit me nicely, I want to give the trigger a tweak down to below 3.5 pound pull to around 2 pound but the trigger can stay like that for now till I get to know the rifle a bit better.
