Shooting gophers is some of the best therapy a guy can get without a prescription. Yesterday it got up to the mid 60’s and the gophers weren’t as thick as they will be once they have their young ones, but it still wasn’t a bad day with: 17 HMR 17 CCM 224 Weatherby Magnum 218 Bee 9mm 40-50 Sharps Bottleneck

I have a friend that built a 22 CCM and is making his own brass in various ways. He’s settled on swagging down 5.7x28 brass since 22 hornet brass is hard to find.
