My wife and youngest daughter (she's 29) went out shopping last night and left me behind. Oh darn...I so wanted to go. This gave me an opportunity to check out some of the presents under the tree. Buried under some other packages and boxes was an odd shaped, wrapped object. Upon picking it up, the tag read "To Dad from Brenda".The shape, weight and sound it made when shaking it was a dead giveaway......an 8 lb jug of Varget... SWEET !!!!! WAHOOO !!! Got to love that kid. I'll put my best "I love it " face on next Tuesday morning.

MC ALICE, I've met your wife and you Daughter, quite frankly sir, you are lucky to have anything under the tree at all and then like a kid you have to shake, rattle and roll the package until you find out what it is. Have you no shame? BTW Merry Christmas! I hope you wake up to plenty of white stuff, and that the tree rats are snuggled deep in their nest.

Thank you Kevin , Same to you and yours. Well, I guess you are off the hook for trying a High Power match this year. But just wait...I will be relentless in 08 "till you try it out. At the rate I am shooting the 7x57 "loaner gun", with 4800 rds. thru it already, you better get out to CRC soon while it still shoots good. Else you will be shooting my Rem. 788 .308 instead. I dont plan on rebarreling the Ruger, when it stops shooting "match accurate", it will be retired to a "real" hunting rifle. It has already taken several mulies and antelope. NO EXCUSES NEXT YEAR BUSTER! Remember, I have the whole Steelchickens gang to help me nag you. BTW, your "Clang , what a sweet sound" refers to High Power. "Clink" is for Small Bore. Come on out and hear for yourself.
