That could bee an interesting target to shoot.
In the meantime, our local range is still closed, the next closest one is members only with an initial cost of $250 to join and the next closest one is not too excited about having muzzleloaders.  With fire danger like it is right now, I am not too excited about going out into the mountains hereabout, so I guess I will just forget about it for a while.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.

It's okay to color in the wasps if you wish. Like Kindergarten, just stay inside the lines :laffing

Alright 1st target of the month.
 Finally got a bunch of rain last night so that lowers my fire risk on the home range.
 Trying to re-load develope my TC hawken.
 took the buckhorn sight off and went back to the factory sight.
 Getting close to having it dialed in so I can shoot my targets.
 Stay tuned
Kevin
