Flatlander Report post Posted November 24, 2018 To answer the OP’s question at my age the bore is always cold and I can’t afford any warm up shots. More than once this has lead to fouling. I used to get upset but now I am just grateful to get to sleep earlier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know I know I’ve had the same one for almost 15 years now and wouldn’t trade her for the world but to each their own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThomC Report post Posted November 24, 2018 Rifle accuracy cannot be bought. It must be earned. Buying the latest high $ hotshot named caliber, rifle, scope, hat etc. will not make you a good shot. 😮 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That time should be spent on the bench with an accurate rifle. Ability can also come by kicking up rabbits and calling in yotes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
