Heck, I’ll take that.

Posted on September 19, 2010 by ExurbanKev

5th out of 13 in a local rifle/shotgun match? (PDF Link)  Not bad. Actually, for me, that’s really good. I know the four shooters who placed above me, and they’re all pretty hardcore three-gunners, so placing fifth instead of my … Continue reading →
