A little pre-4th fun

[stetto]

I was at the folks' yesterday, helping install handrails in Mom's shower, and we started hearing HUGE explosions in the fields west of the house. Windows rattling, teeth rattling, Mom rattling. So thee olde Mann and I drove down to see if stumps were being removed or some kids got hold of a case of dynamite.

Neither. The next door neighbor had a case of Tannerite, a 30-06, a .243 and about a dozen friends making fun boom-boom @ 500 yds. I'd never heard of the stuff but after dad's neighbor handed me the .243 and let me blow some sh** up I want to do it a lot more often!

...And I didn't waste even one shell (he was using Hornady ammo).

Heheh, I have only watched it go off.  My neighbors already think I am nut job rolling up and down the road with the evil black rifle in the handle bar gun rack, so I don't push my luck, besides I am too cheap.  Some guys really get carried away, I watched a video of someone using lbs of it and destroyed a car.

But God bless America where the explosions going off are not because someone doesn't worship the prophet some believe in the right way.

Was out at my cousin's house about a month ago.  Got my first taste of the tannerite that they were shooting.  Pretty cool    They enjoyed my night vision scope too.

I spend money foolishly here and there, well, everywhere.  But not sure I want to pony up approximately 20 bucks a bang.

ps to stetto:  Thank god  (can we say that here?) you finally posted.  I think me and jetmex figure we are thread closers

If you feel you seem to have a curse of being the last word, I should let you talk to my wife.

Reminds me of a joke...

An older couple was having  words with each other.  Little timmy askes gramma... wheres grampa at.  She says  he's out back by the workshop.  Little timmy goes out there and finds grampa sulking and pouting.  timmy asks whats wrong grampa, gramma says you and her had words and you were pouting.  Grampa says yeah we had words, but I didn't get to use mine.

Saay......is it legal to shoot 'skeeters down there ?

[Onepoint]

Yeah, but I would be broke buying enough ammo to make a dent.

I was thinking 88mm flak might put a dent in the population.....

Well it is the the 4th, so happy independence day, supposed to be blazing hot today and tomorrow, might be time to drag out the AC.

I don't think the neighborhood association will let me put an 88 in my front yard...
