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....

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

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.

I imagine with 70 grains in that .32, it really barks.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.
