RockCrawlinChef and I don't get to shoot together nearly often enough. In fact, I don't recall that the two of us have ever gone shooting
just the two of us. We've shot matches together; we've gone out to the range with various family annd friends, but I don't think we've ever gone out alone.
Last weekend, we took a short roadtrip to Cabela's and two new rifles joined our family: a Remington 700 SPS .308 and a Henry Survival Rifle .22 LR. We've been anxiously awaiting today to try them out. We're headed to Nebraska in January with a group from the gun shop to hunt and "needed" a hunting rifle, so we managed to justify the .308. For the Steel Challenge, RCC wanted to shoot his AR-7, so I ordered extra magazines. Turns out the magazines are not interchangeable. The ones I bought fit the Henry, not the Armalite (which is the one he had at his parents' house). Well, darn, we now had five magazines and no rifle, which is why we "had" to buy the Henry.

| I really love the new rifle, too bad I need a visit to the eye doctor. |

| I don't know, you think he likes the new rifle? |
I had such a good time on my shooting date with my husband; I think I'll try it again tomorrow at the Steel Challenge.

Looks like a good time:o) Rach and I need to go out more often.. We have a BLAST (literally) when we do....LOL
P.S. I might have a clip that will fit the AR-7 if I do you are welcome to it:o)
I kept looking at these pictures thinking, "What looks so wrong about how she is holding that rifle?" Oh yeah, I'm a lefty when it comes to shooting. It looked like a fun date...and what's with that silly grin in RCC's face?
