Great toohear of a shooter who only likes the easy shooting I would be well p off after spending all winter chasing the woodies on the OSR to have you rock up and shoot the the good shooting. Makes me laugh when shooters cry about being unable to get bags on the OSR Good luck hope you dont find any drilling ATB Cookie Edited March 12, 2012 by cookiemonsterandmerlin Quote Link to post
