My NRA yearly membership is up in July 
I'm undecided "if" I'll rejoin ....
The magazine (AR) is not very good , I have enough Chinese knockoff knifes , ballcaps which I don't even wear and an el cheapo
quasi so called range bag (also unused)

Seems to me they could , exclude all the bait kitsch , the SEVERAL mailings to rejoin postage ( even though I'm already a member) 
the phone calls 2-3 times a month  ( again I'm already a member) !
and use the money for the real fight 

[Silver Creek Slim]

Mine is also up in July. Not renewing unless Wayne is gone. 
I'll probably give the money to GOA.

Got tired of Wayne years ago, they need a lot of work to get me back.  I think they are just another swamp monster, window dressing to make some people rich.  Have had a lot mad at me for that for years, seems more are seeing what I saw years ago.

My rant for today, much needed rain, not sure how much, have to put a new soup or rather since it's in the kitchen, kraut can out.  Don't need it to 100ths, I can see a 1/4 or 1/2 inch close enough.

Got new coffee will open tomorrow, do I need Fruit Loops to go with it?

Main reason I was a NRA member as it was required for the Range I was member of....
I quit that membership after 2018 when they went to $200 a year + the NRA admission ... The County range is $12 all day and is both more modern and closer.
beside I have my own home gallery ....sooooo  Sayônara.

No fan of LaPierre...

Not me shooting.

Not me shooting.

I think I know him. 

My friend, who I reload for, scored us 1000 LR primers and 1000 SP primers. That should keep us shooting for a little while.

Afternoon Y'all, Was supposed to work on my son's Jeep this morning,But he didn't show up.I decided to mow the lawn in the afternoon.Going to Pa. tomorrow for a CAS match.Weather is supposed to be nice.

[Delmonico]

Went to the Fund Raiser supper for the Burr Nebraska VFD, had frog legs, cow nuts, cow tongue, rabbit and other good stuff.  Daughter, her husband and their 4 year old daughter live there and are on the VFD.    Saw several people I used to work with, related to, or old customers.   

Rita ate shrimp.

Money to go to infrared search device, wish I had won the lottery and could have wrote them a check.

Sunshine and 76 here, high supposed to be 92. Biscuits and gravy for breakfast. Extra chunky gravy, won't have to strain it to find the sausage!

Slim, didn't you use a Win 94 in 38-55 at the muster a year or two ago? How'd it do for the 300 yard gong? What I'm reading online says if I sight it 1 1/2" high at 100, it'll drop something like 75 inches at 300! Don't think the standard barrel mounted sight will get me that much elevation.

[Silver Creek Slim]

Having some iced tea, now.

It is a 1893 Marlin in .38-55 w/ 26" barrel. The 250gr bullet is probably going 1400 fps. I think I raised the sight all the way and walked it in. Those targets are at least 36" tall.

Thanks, Slim. I was going to use my 30-30, but due to my usual procrastination, I find myself without enough proper bullets for it, and no mold. Was going to try and use some 180 grain rn from a Lee mold, but...the nose is too long to feed through the action. But I do have a couple hundred bullets for the 38-55, and a set of dies I've had for 20 years, and never used. Only have 60 cases for it, but I've got a couple hundred once fired 30-30 cases someone gave me I can re-size.
