prairie goat;
Top of the morning to you sir, I hope the day's breaking bright and fair down your way and you're well.

Interestingly, well or not depending, I just stuck a 1978 made 2.5X in my pocket for "trading stock" as I head out to the local gun show.

When our girls first started hunting it was on our eldest's Swede carbine and it was noticeably faster than whatever other scope I'd put on there before that for her.

Then it went onto a 336 Marlin that I'd worked over in the shop. It was one of those rifles one had to shoot to appreciate somehow.

Hitting clay pigeons laying on the bank at 100yds was seemingly easy with it. Shooting offhand too.

Buddy came over when I was tuning on it, began to lay down brown bills which are $100 Cdn by the way, until I relented even though it wasn't for sale.

I did keep the scope, but somehow in the years since I've not found a project for it.

All the best to you all this weekend.
