The Major's new gun

Major Payne 'D' Arse bought a new H&R in 38-55 fitted with a brass sighting tube and shot it at Kariong yesterday.He still has a huge smile on his face.

Hi Piedra Kid.

It shot good,first time out with it and I loaded his ammo for him 30grains of 3f Wano- 245 grain pill,and he didn't miss with it all day.Targets out at around 35yds, I have one coming in 45-70,no sighting tube on it at this stage and looking forward to shooting it.

Hey, Dakota Dan how you doing Pard? Did the mount's come with the scope or did the Major have to have them built?

Yes they came with the scope,it was fitted on an Italian Sharps which we trade in on a pistol, so Hoodoo (The other guy in with us) got the barrel drilled and taped to suit.

I am going good, trying to shoot as much as I can and trying to get back over there.maybe some time in 2008.
