So I have managed a few days leave and got myself an extra long weekend.
Missus is working tomorrow and the kids are at childcare/school. I have a very rare day at home to myself.
The possibilities are (almost) endless.
Golf?
Motorcycle ride?
Jobs around the house?
Shooting?
Hunting?
I then remember my main hunting rifle does not have a great zero or accuracy at the moment, really needs a range day to try and sort it out.
Few Milsurps need some load development too. And I need to pop my cherry on the new K31 acquisition. A range day it is.
Taking the cover all hunting trio.
From left, Howa .308, Howa .223 , Lithgow .22
And some old fellas.
Three standard issue British pattern rifles, none actually built in Britain. And a World War 2 fence sitter that never fired a shot in anger.
Savage No.4 mk1*, with a singer adjustable peep sight I managed to acquire.
A World War 2 era Lithgow.
A swiss K31 from the last years of issue in the mid 50's
And a 1916 P14 Eddystone.
Taking plenty of ammo, got all day. Weather looks like it will be sunny and not too windy.
Sucks to have to spend my Monday doing some range time, but someone's gotta do it.
Not rubbing it in your faces, just a rare event for me lately and I'm pretty pumped.
