It's 10pm....you know the drill.

Had a great day today....
Went to the county range with another old fart -- and went through about 60 rounds at the 100yd line...
Using commercial ammo - and a couple of very old 30-06 bolt actions with good glass --- could still keep 80% within a 3" circle..

The shaking is visable.... You can actually see the reticle dancing across the bottom of the damned bulls eye! Breathing control, tightening the sling around your arms and "locking in" - will still not stop the damned old man shakes. Getting old is a bitch...

Let's see, that's a 15" circle at 500 yards. That would still work.

I've got about 1/6th of my book typed into Word; it's going too slowly, but at least I have cut my freeping way back. I'll send you these chapters in Word attachments if you want to see what I have so far.
