Hello Everyone!

[Daddio!]

Hi Everyone,

This is a wonderful site and I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I guess you could say that I come from a shooting background since my family owned and operated a large outdoor range NW of Chicago for many years where I was employed until we closed in the late '90's. Although I dabbled in centerfire shooting for a few years my true love is .22 rimfires. I think I'm a fairly well rounded shooter but I primarily shoot benchrest and enjoy rimfire accuracy as much as my wallet will allow, which isn't very much given I have a family that needs to be clothed, fed, etc. I do ok given the reletively inexpensive equipment that I've been able to accumulate a little at a time over the years. I've recently decided to broaden my horizon and shoot the smallbore silhouette matches that are held at the sportsman's club that I belong to. I've already found a lot of great information on this site (and the site offered by AZrifle) but I'm sure that I'll have plenty of questions. In fact, I already do but I'll ask them in another thread.

Thanks for being here!

Patrick

Welcome to the addiction and feel free to ask away, there are as many opinions as questions.
