Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Probably not helping the ammo shortage...

Got up to our spot in the foothills to celebrate a few brothers birthdays the best way we know...
Plenty of good food and drink around the fire and a whole lotta flying brass!
It's a smaller piece of property so .22's only and that works out just fine.

Bowls of loudmouth soup served here..


I got a rare quiet moment on the firing line..

Annie games were being played and the bragging was fierce

Few of the other rifles that got plenty of attention as well..

Friday night sunset was out of this world...started good and kept getting better

Dad had a little seperation with a round out of a model 41 smith

Good times were had by all and the round count was tremendous..can't wait to do it again!

Good golly you guys sure went thru the RF ammo, that's some fine looking firearms but you had a great time. I get to the range once or twice a week now that I'm retired, always take a couple of .22's along with whatever else I'm shooting.

Looks like a great time. Too bad somebody had to go and spoil it with that crappy light beer.😜

Gotta ask; is that Costco gin on the right?

What a great get-together, what a great firing line.
Best,
Chuck

Now that looks like a helluva good time! I love the pic of the grill running some chicken in the background.

Pappy, I get lotsa grief for my uppity taste in beer but my frugal ways with the brews allow me to dabble in the finer rimfires
And yes it is Costco gin..not bad at all but a little more fruity tasting. My money goes to beefeater every time

Does it get better than yardbird on the grill at a .22 fest...I think not!

Thanks Cisco, it was indeed a great time. There were a few new rifles that got wrung out pretty good too

Some awesome looking .22's there.. Looks like a super fun time.. thanks for the show..

When I used to drink gin, Tanqueray was the stuff. Didn't take me too long to figure out I wasn't cut out to be a drinker, so my alcohol budget doesn't cut into my shooting budget too much. Costcos around here only sell beer and wine, so I was a little surprised to see the fuzzy Kirkland's logo in your picture.

Can't stomach light beer though. I like stuff that's a bit chewier. Lately that's been Newcastle Brown Ale. Besides taste, beer has to be available at Food Lion, the closest store.

Did you do a total round count?

Pappy, my tastes in adult beverages puts the fine in refined
Round count for that trip was approx. 5500-6000

I pass on the cheap beer

Dang, I didn't know they still made that wonderful stuff. I'll have to mention it to my wine steward at Food Lion.

Can't do that one. Mama told me to never drink anything containing cocoa nibs.

Odd for me it's pomegranate molasses

A really great weekend and a darn fine collection of rimfires! Nice job.

Well to be honest I couldn't taste the cocoa nibs nor the pomegranate molasses. I could taste the beer flavor and the %50 that was aged in whisky barrels really came through.

At %11.7 it was a good breakfast

Table full of Annies....Wonderful sight.
