Default Wet Sage.........

Wet Sage, there is nothing quite like it. Even better with a light rifle, shooting stix, and a few willing targets.
Load Data: 22 Hornet..........13.4gr Lil Gun, R-P Cases, Rem 7.5 primers(to prevent flow), 40gr Nosler Varmageddon Tipped, 3,090 FPS@ 55*

Thanks for the photo's and the rifle looks very nice, and I know you will and are enjoying it as it is.
The scope and set up would look better, in some ways, if it was more of the old style scopes from the same era. Just saying, not running down the one you have. Bill K

LOL- seems to have an appropriate splat-factor.

Nice pics.

Glad to see you are drying out and the targets are popping up.

I had a lot of fun with my hornet in the day. Lil'Gun and 40 grain ballistic tips were the cat's meow!

Where's the sage? Love that smell.

Where's the sage?.......all around me.
Sage was all around me that day, and with recent rains, it heavily infused the light breeze.

If you could only smell the photos

You will have to post some of the scratch and sniff photo's.

Looks like that little rifle is doing a fine job turning those little rascals inside out.

I managed to smack 8 crows last weekend, a few over bait and the rest were called in to a dead one on the ground with the crow in distress call. My 17AH was performing well, went 8-8 in the 160 yard range with some pretty gusty conditions.

Guess I am the odd man out, here. Wet sage reminds me of a mild wiff of cat pee.

That rifle sure is pretty, though. Bet we agree on that.
