Hmmm... all i did all day was went skeet shootin' at a buddy of mines house. LoL. ended with a few 5 gallon buckets full of empty shotgun shells and lots and lots of orange specks all over the valley down there... oh yeah and my shotgun broke!!!! the dang butt of the gun came loose from the action so it wiggles all around making it hard to shoot. overall a good day. went thru a lot of shells and got me a nicely brused shoulder.. haha
