Accoutrements / Re: Small Accoutrement projects I do

   Thanks for the comeback Welcome comments Been in some bad health but seems to be stable. Comment of picture info! The bottom picture is a Pheasant Foot. Where it meets the cloth is a steel 3" pin for a touchhole cleanout tool. It hangs from my rifle pouch. When someone asks,
"What is that?" I say, "Pheasant foot"! Then the scenario repeats...????? Then, I grip it how you see it and say, "Really, it's an answer for stupid questions!'. They'll look puzzled and I repeat until they see IT.... & feel STUPID.... and say, "O K" while they nod their head. I also have a turkey foot on the end of the white, whole leg (about 7-8"- Looks great when held out toward you). It's a HOOT STATEMENT, one of the LOL parts for rendezvous and shoots.  :Doh! :applaud :luff: ;banghead; :stooges:

I imagine with 70 grains in that .32, it really barks.

well, it depends on the powder load. I've gone as high as 70 grains and it dropped 2 inches but it's inconsistent in a cold bore.

You deserve it buddy. How far do you think that 32 drops at 100 yards ? I know you don't want any wind blowing.

That's the spirit, Salty!  Unfortunately our weather forecast is for rain through next Sunday.  While the shooting stations are covered, I am not going to put on rain gear and rubber boots so I can wade to the target stands, even if it's warm out.  Maybe next week....
