Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once

No match trigger yet. Got layed off from my job, so funds were a little tight for a bit. I just got all my finances back in line with a new job. So, time to start saving again. LOL.

The 17 Rem would be fun. The only projectiles I have for it are 30g Bergers, which are considered heavy for caliber. But, they should do just fine. So long as there is only minor wind.

Speaking of wind, funny little story about the 17. Some friends and I went jack rabbit hunting on a windy day. Our set up was rather lethal to say the least. We typically went with 4 people total. Our system worked like this. Person 1 had a shotgun, persons 2 and 3 had 22lr's, then person 4 (me) had the long range rifle. Well, we pushed two jack rabbits well out of 22lr range up a hill side. So, I waited for them to stop. Interestingly, they stopped next to each other about 3 feet apart. I decided to shoot at the rabbit on the left. I sat down, steadied myself, squeezed the trigger, boom! My buddies yell, you got the right one! In a suprised voice I said, "I WASN'T AIMING AT THE RIGHT ONE!" Well, there was a pretty nasty left to right wind blowing that day. =)

Scott and Tyson, both of you should get rifles and come out. Talk about SECCS domination (maybe) just like with everything else this group does.
