Upcoming events ...

Headed to Vegas on the 18th. Going to be working a tradeshow (Interop), but am going to try and meetup with a couple custom knifemakers while I'm there. Should be fun. No training as I go in for more ink before heading out. Going to get a couple of owls on my chest. Wahoo!

Nuttnbunny is in town today, looking forward to hanging out with them.

Finished a couple good books lately, but that will be highlighted in an upcoming post. A post in which I admit that I am a true geek who reads all kinds of crazy fantasy/science fiction. Shocking I know.

More soon.

The joy of shooting

Yesterday I packed up my CZ 452 and a couple boxes of ammo and trucked on out to the range. I didn't bring any super fancy hand canons, or any tactical tupperware, but just the .22. I had a ball. I forgot how fun it can be to simply try and shot small groups with a bolt-action .22. First I had to get the scope configured. Again, nothing fancy (spartan would be more precise), a Cabelas Pine Ridge in 3x9x40. Out of the box it was low and right, but grouping well. Over the next 50 minutes I got the scope semi-dialed in and the groups dropped. I still have some work to do, but the last 5 rounds could be covered by a dime. Of course, that was only at 25 yards, but I'm going to keep trying till I can do it at further distances.
