Default Hello from a new member

Hello All,

Just wanted to introduce myself, ran across this forum and really liked what i saw so i joined. Been shooting since about 1972, got away from the sport for a number of years due to life getting in the way but im back now. looking forward to learning from this wonderful resource.

Mike

Having gotten started in shooting about 5 years ago at the age of 60, this forum has taught me everything that I know, to reloading, marksmanship, weapon types, etc.

Welcome aboard Mike.
