how about a Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX,+IA GTG thread?

Evening all! Had an interesting weekend. Yesterday was the 7th annual Dale A. Bohrer Aim for a Cure trap shoot for the National Brain Tumor Society that my wife's family and I put on, in honor of my late F.I.L. A bit smaller than previous years, but after all expenses and seed money for next year, we'll still be writing about a $2900 check to NBTS. Plus, I shot 27/50 (with a fair amount of back pain), which I'd normally be pissed about, but did so with my Wife's - Grandfather's old Browning BT99, which no one else in the family can seem to shoot. The first time I tried using it I think I went 8/50. Going over 50% with a hurting back and weapon I don't have years of practice on is ok.

Today Dad and I delivered a cord of wood to a friend and Her niece (1/2 cord a piece in two locations) and then I hopped on a fairly new Kubota L2501 (54 hours on the meter) and did some bush hogging for Her. Not a BIG tractor by any means, but I was impressed how well 25hp performed in that format. I may come for sale soon too, which has me thinking, but I think I may be better off with a 35/50hp tractor... We'll see.

Next year give me a heads up I like shooting for a cause.

BT99 is good gun.[emoji108]

16 yard?

 

[Locust Cutter]

Will do!

16 yard?

Started at the 16 for the first 25 shots. Shot the other 25 at the 18yd line. At one point we were shooting at 60yds and I was still hitting occasionally. That's a lot more challenging.

 

[Locust Cutter]

It's a 2 barrel cased set and both barrels are ported/fixed choke. Same length, but I believe different chokes. I need to figure out which barrel is which in regards to choke as all else seems to be the same. It's had a fair bit of use, but is still rock solid with a tight lockup.

 

[67L36Driver]

Barrels should be marked as to choke. But, many trap shooters are fond of honing or back boring etc.[emoji849]

My M12 ‘Y’ model trap was treated so. Somewhere between mod and full it is.

Great 16 yard and dove gun.

46 or 88?

Think I may have lost 6-8 cord of red oak (mostly pin oak). I had all the rounds stacked for splitting. Just getting started splitting them today and it seems all of it has turned punky. I stacked them on the north side of a building at my wood lot, in the shade. Live and learn.

OUCH!

Morning every one. Going to be a nice fall day.

I'd trade a saw or two for that "old Browning BT99"! You could call it the Grandpa's old Stihl.

OK. Guess my head is getting a bit rusty. Hope it does well!

Good morning !

Emerson is in the "i want to snuggle" phase, which I hope doesn't end for a while, but not last till puberty....

 

[teacherman]

Today's shenanigans include getting under the porch to run gas line for an unvented radiant heater (10K btu) on the enclosed front porch. In a small house, having this room really makes life a lot better. WIll post some pics.

We got the rim beat back to fairly close but can’t get the bead to catch. [emoji20]

Ordered a new wheel off evilbay.

Rockauto canceled my first order as they were out of stock.[emoji13]

Fixed! Got the bead to catch and it holds air.[emoji106] Servicable until the new wheel gets here.
