Winters Last blast

Well the week end just past with another 10-15 cm of snow hitting the ground, sighs. I just noticed that the range is set to go to summer hours April 2. No more of just being able to go on Sundays and then only if its warm enough.

weather032514The weather report say this.. and so this last Sunday of the winter hours Sandra and I should be out there. Emptying brass for reloading. Looking forward to using up the last of my factory rounds.

I think I will even go so far as to  give the 300 yard range its first try of the year for me.

Well here’s to the start of a new season.

I just joined the NFA, I encourage  anyone reading to join and help support this organization. One that specifically helps fight   oppressive Canadian gun laws and stands up for Canadian gun owners.

They are largely responsible for  getting rid of the  gun registry a few years ago

Day at the Range

March 9th

DCIM101GOPROSandra and I went off to the Stittsville Range today. We had a great time, it was  cold but not that biting winter cold we have had as of late.  I can deal with -1 and above quite nicely. Today we brought the .22 win mag and the .223 X-Bolt. Did not do to bad, for  not having shot most of the winter. Sandra has improved hugely since her passing the PAL course and we see nothing but  more improvement going forward. I was able to test some of my loads and will be analyzing the results. That is the fun part of reloading, testing new loads. 🙂

looking forward to next week, and also to when the 200 yard  range opens….
