Primary Interest:
Other
If I am not exploring and metal detecting, I am long range target shooting. If I am not long range target shooting, I am exploring and metal detecting. Just depends on the day. I get great satisfaction from both. I can hit a soda can at 750 yards pretty regularly, and often shoot to 1000 yards. And I can FIND a soda can at 16 inches deep with the detector, sometimes more! What are some of your “other” hobbies and interests?

That's one serious looking scope! I used to have a 12 power Unertl on my 243 Model 70 Win. (pre64)

They are both Leupold target scopes, 6-18x on the Savage .243 and straight 12x on the Remington .223 . A pre 64 Mod70 is my dream rifle. Someday.....!
 

I'm a shooter too. Here I am with my Savage 112-V .220 Swift with Redfield 3200 scope. I have a 100 yd. range behind my house. I also do stock work and just restocked my pre-64 M70 .30-06 with a piece of Turkish walnut. Polished the metal and it's ready for a reblue. Gary
