Default A day at the range.

Had a great time today with my friend Robert, his son Bobby and my youngest son Hunter.

That's a nice range. You need to get your friend to join TFF so we can tell him what we really think of you.

Robert was shooting his Sako .308, his son Bobby was shooting a Tikka T3 7mm-08, my son Hunter was shooting his Tikka 595 7mm-08 and I shot my Remington 700 varmint .308.

Bob's not the type to spend time on the computer, I've been trying for months to get him on here.

Great guns and I love the 7mm-08! If you handload, try some Benchmark in the -08, I think you'll like the results.

I still need a couple of things before I can start reloading, one being 7mm-08 dies and I need to do some rearranging in the garage to make room for a reloading area.
