Hi folks,
At the range this morning, I met some interesting folks at the range. A group of Russians were there, with all sorts of high-powered rifles, shotguns, and pistols. They let me and my buddy try a custom 12 gauge pump and a 7.62x58mm rifle. Their .223 AK clone threw brass out with enough force to hurt anyone standing to their right side!
While me and my buddy were trying to avoid brass showers, I got my new scope dialed in on the .22. It was actually very difficult, I think because I was using a dovetail-to-weaver adapter for the rings. The scope was literally 50 clicks low and right. The Savage is almost a tack driver now, getting quarter-sized groups with cheap Federal.
The Russians - a whole family, I think - took the time to say goodbye and shake our hands before they packed up their arsenal. Definitely good folks.
I am continually struck by how nice the folks at the range are. Whoever you meet, you can just have a great conversation with.
