Ben at least you still be far enough south to avoid the snow. Hopefully

I certainly hope so. I don't mind snow, just not in April.

Have you run a shoot in Shenandoah? Hows the range?

The range is in a pasture. From what I have heard they did some earth work last fall and put up a decent berm. 25 meters only for now. It works and is improving all the time.

Lets have positive thoughts gentlemen!  Positive thoughts of 70 degree weather and nothing but sunshine!  I have already summerized (rather than winterized) my snow blower for the year and I am definitely not ready to get it back out!

Not yet, but I wish it would get here. I have 1,200 onions in the ground that could use a drink.

I'm doing good, Ben. I lost my election, so it's time to get the rifle out :)

Hey Hector how have you been?  I was at the Bates City shoot the first of the month and you spent a lot of time working with me and my buddy since we were at the very end of the line with the bolt guns.  Thanks for your expertise and insight that weekend!  I definitely learned a lot from you!

Glad I was able to help.  You guys had a pretty good handle on it, but some of the folks down the line needed a little more help, so I didn't spend as much time as I would have liked to with you.  You were doing a good job with maintaining your sight picture while running the bolt, and you trigger control was much better by the end of the shoot.  Keep pushing that support elbow under the rifle, until it only hurts a little bit, and you both will take home a patch next time.
