Well my fellow wankermen, this is what happens when a wanker forgets to put it in 4 wheel. It is possible to slide backwards on wet grass, who knew?
Other than a momentary run in with the fence it was an excellent morning. Nice and cool with minimal bug activity.
Loading an Ace tribute shooting vid...
Looking forward to the vid.
Was going to do some scouting today, had to use the lockers to get out without rutting that bitch up. Maybe next week? I'll overnight some bugs for you.

Throw out #s 1&2 cause they have Sierra Bullets in them. Do not forsake faster powders like 4895 with the 162 Horn...
Great,do not have any IMR-4895. What about Var-Get or is that to fast.

Just shot 49.0,50.0,51.0 grs of H-4831 and going to try 51.0 gr again as soon as I buy more bullets. The box only had 32 of the 162 gr Hornady's.
Tanner,pass on the .284 win.

The conversation reminds me of the two bulls on the hill crest looking at a pasture full of cows. The young one says "Let's run down there and phouc a cow."
The old bull looks at him and replies "Let's walk down there and phouc 'em all. "
