I'm sure those periods could be broken down into smaller groups too if needed This would keep the 19 and 23 guys from competing against the Anschutz 22s of the 60s and 70s.

He gave me some 22 ammo to try in my model 19, but bribes don't work backwards, do they? Bribes, Sailor Jerry? I do have to meet up with him to give his book back, Sailor Jerry?

Then I saw a nice Lyman Junior Targetspot 8X that I thought would look at home on it. I'm just trying to figure out how long I can go with out eating, so I can buy either one. Do you have anything interesting rolling around in the parts bin? Before I give my money to some stranger, Joe. I'm not greedy, I just want one of each. Remember Ira Hayes JoeMartin

She will come and sit in front of you, and if you don't let her out NOW, yellow stains on the new carpet. I left her in long enough to go get two steaks for dinner, maybe a half hour, guess what. Plus, she's older than you and me put together. Sometimes I pick her up to put her in bed and I think she's gone stiff. Yeah, all the scopes I like cost about 3 times what I paid for the gun. But, I've paid even more for scopes for other rifles, so I guess it's all perspective. I'd like to find a period Malcolm, then it would go with the "H", Joe. I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

On Monday the "official" rules come out, and we'll get this show on the road. Run down to the bank take out a loan and buy some premo .22 ammo, and get your eyes sharpened up.
