Realizations from the range:
1. Warn your 6 year-old son, AGAIN, that you're about to fire "the big gun".
2. Your 3 year-old daughter likes "pretty guns" but she has absolutely NO interest in noisy ones.
3. A Ruger 10/22 being wielded by a 6 year-old sounds like a Class III auto.
4. Wind in Alaska ain't no joke, it will start blowing at full-gale as soon as you start your trigger squeeze.
5. I need to get lower scope mounts. Shooting with your neck on the stock does not lead to tiny shot groups (add help from #4, and pray for paper!).
6. Shooting stuff is fun.
With 20-30 MPH wind at times, shot groups looked like shotgun patterns. No need for pictures on this run, it is TOO embarrassing!
