This weekend after the RBC at the range Wildman decided to check the zero on his M1 Garand. He set up a target on the 100 yard line checked the wind and fired one round. It hit dead center on the target, punched out the X ring. I told him to pack up and go home no need to shoot any More!

That's the way its done
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. (James Madison)

"Young man, what we meant in going for those Redcoats was this: we always had governed ourselves and we always meant to. They didn't mean we should."
(Captain Levi Preston, of the Danvers militia, at age 91, remembering the day)

That it is an indispensable duty which we owe to God, our country, ourselves and posterity, by all lawful ways and means in our power to maintain, defend and preserve those civil and religious rights and liberties, for which many of our fathers fought, bled and died, and to hand them down entire to future generations.  Suffolk Resolves, September 9, 1774, attributed to Dr. Joseph Warren

Yes he had that smile all day. Joe is the best shooter on the range.

Saw that one on my way out the gates!  A beautiful shot indeed - Timothy Murphy and all the rest of the Riflemen back in the day would be proud. 

But he's still not likely to convince me to put a plank between my knees at 250 yards, or whatever that was...   ???
