Thanks Evan. At least I've got a start on getting the "dope" book put together on it.
Now if I can remember to put it down long enough get new zero's a some other rifles, that I was going to do today, but got carried away with the SR-762 so I'm going to be forced to go back to the range tomorrow afternoon. Break my arm........
(That SR-762 has a terrible 1 shot addiction, may need interdiction treatment very shortly)

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Had some things come up this morning and so, while I did make a dump run, I didn't get to go back to the range today, but I'll make it tomorrow.
The 100 and 200 yard range at YCSA has a roof on the shooting lines so I can shoot comfortably, even in the rain. The only problem with it is that when a whole bunch of rain comes in too short a time period, it converts from shooting range to a huge, very deep mud puddle when the Yamhill River overflows its banks.
0 to 1000 range at the farm is open pretty much all year, unless there is an oops and the lane gets planted in grass seed, wheat or oats. But, it is a fair weather range. Can get wet and muddy.
Last time I went shooting in Arkansas, 500 rounds would not have made it through the first day. Grandpa's Cat Fish House was mighty fine though.
Evening all. Nice day just doing little repair jobs around the place. A few more tomorrow and I'll be back to projects. Unless its dry then I may break out the targets somebody stuck the bug in my ear. Need to make sure all the riffles are still zeroed in just in case. And my range is open for the next two weeks until I move the yaks to it.

Good soggy morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 41°, wet, rain, overcast, still even wetter and even more rain. 3/4" since midnight.
Decided not to go duck hunting this morning. Didn't want to have to swim out to the pond and back.

If your "Warden" is telling you they are going up like my "Warden" is telling me...you're screwed!
Maybe something that might help or make it easier. Get one of those projectors. We got one last year and it really is kind of neat. Warden still made me put up some lights, but not nearly as many or as time consuming as it had been in previous years.

If you are just putting them up for yourself so you "fit in" with the neighbors, then it's simple. You just say, "I'm not doing it this year". Worked for me for about 2 years.

The light projector doesn't work on this place duplex has a funky layout and to much crap in the way.
