Default New to forum

If this isn't the correct area for an introduction, would a mod please move?

I am new to the forum but not to shooting. I started my shooting interest in the military in the 1960s and have been shooting and reloading/handloading ever since. My interests are primarily with 22 mag target shooting, but I recently purchased a Ruger GP100 revolver to play with. Looking forward to many discussions.

Welcome to the forum! I just got into shoot'n the .22 Mag. I had an older Henry golden Boy, Lever gun chambered in the .22 Mag. Didnt shoot it hardly at all, but still a fun soda can shooter! I only own one firearm chambered for this most awesome of rounds... It justa little 9 shot High Standard revolver. Fun as heck tho! I love it! plus I got a smokin deal for it! Enjoy, and like Jack said, lets see some of the line-up!
