actually, i did . When i had the loader off and the hood off to repair the squirrel or rat chewed hole in the fuel tank, i took the opportunity to wax and clean the machine.
she likes to be clean.

I am so jealous of you guys that can step right outside and go shooting.
Come retirement time (another 6yrs) have plans to sell this place and move much farther out of town. Far enough out to shoot WILL be a requirement.

I was at rifle range one time (to sight in a 30-06) and they used piles of old tires as a backstop...no joke...!

AHHH.. finally im finished with the range. Just had a neighbor help me finish the fill dirt and cover material. Now all i have to do is tame down the level ground around the site and build me cabana (or portable tent...havnt decided yet).

Do it as soon as you possibly can, I wish I could have done it sooner. I can walk out my back door and fire off a few rounds, ride my Rhino or ATV or go down to the barn and get in my tractor.

ok, here are the final pics. I installed a set of RR ties at the base of the mound so i can set removable 2x4 frames that ill use to hold paper targets. I can simply staple targets to frames. Easy to replace frames that get shot to pieces.

ok, i just got my new Saiga 12 shotgun (12 ga shotgun) from the gunsmith. he didnt get the tri rail installed as they shipped him one made for the AK47 instead of the larger 12g, but he told me to take it home and run a hew hundred rounds thru it....check it out. He will install the rail system for me after he gets the right one....cant wait.
