Sounds good ED. Houston Pat, you can shoot my 30/40 or the 6.5 x 55. Both iron sights or peep site. Ammo for the Russian is real cheap to buy and shoot. Another good one to bring. I personal will not shoot reloads in my 30/40 for a while. Have to keep under 40,000 for safety. Love for Gunner to bring his sharps. Pat you can bring your brand new one so we can just look too.
