Not very portable  but on the plus side it'll  be a long, long before they're  shot out.

Of course, that remains to be proven.   :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Reminds me of when I was just a mere lad.  My grandfather brought me along on his vacations to where he was born, a little mining town in northern California.  He had inherited 40 acres a few miles up the river and it had an old barn on it.  And that was where I started my life long love of shooting.  I would carry his old Winchester Model 55 (which was a pretty big load for a 4 year old) and when we got there, my job was to shoot the knot holes out of the barn.  It was a chore just to hold the rifle up and aim it at that point in my life, but I did it.  Darn, those were shining times.

I remember as a kid on the farm, our Uncle would come for a visit, and Dad and him would turn up on its edge one of those big old empty wooden wire wheels and roll that along side the barn and shoot at it. Now they could hit that big wooden spindle, but they missed the barn every time... As a kid I wasn't quite sure which one they were aiming at...  :Doh!  :laffing
