I took out my .308 Norma.Yesterday afternoon. It's a 1903 rebore. The knob on the bolt used to smack my hand on recoil. So I bubbaded up put in a vice and bent the knob outta the way. Any ways we got about two feet of snow yet and it's straight ice on the roads.

I put the rifle in a primos two pronged fun rest on a old Bausch and Lomb tripod. Shot kneeling cradling the contraption. I had 200 grain reloads.

BOOM! It bowled me right the smuck over! The neighbors were unloading hay. If they were watching I am probabally gonna hear about it at the post office!

I hit the target, and promptly switched to shooting it of a gate post!
