It Was A Nice Day To Do Some Shooting

Post by RugerNut »

I built an outdoor range in my dads back yard about 6 years ago. My son and I took some firearms to shoot, including my MN. We went thru 100 rds. of Tula ammo. I need to get a rubber butt pad for the stock. That thing kicks like a mule on steroids. My son took pics but he hasn't sent them to me yet. At 50 yards I was shooting about a 4-5" pattern at the silhouette. The best part was cleaning the MN, and the other firearms. :roll:

Get one of the slip on kind. You may have messed up holes in your stock from other buttplate switches or recoil. Those screws are like augers. They will eventually make big slick holes in your stock. :post_r:

It will only allow me to add 1 pic file. Every time I try to add more pics it shows an HTTM ERROR. :vconfused:

I take pics with my wife's smart phone, she emails them to me, I download them in a dedicated file, then select from that file. It makes it easy for me.
