Hey shadowwodahs, thanks for the tiny bullet..lol This spring when the weather gets better, would you be interested in coming to Chattanooga for a day at the range? I'm
a member at the Chattanooga Rifle Club and would be more than happy to have 45/70
day or whatever you would what to shoot. On our plinking range we can shot up to
155 mm howitzer, if available. Look up the club online if you are interested and it
will give you an idea of what you may want to shoot. Thanks, again for the bullet.
Shadowwodahs, I run into that problem at times. I'm not sure what causes it. I usually flip around the forum and then it corrects itself. Love the Weaponry photo. As soon as I figure out how send pics
to the forum, I'll send mine. Good luck.
