Nice looking rifle, Colonel. We have a .22 Long Colt with a feeder tube that holds 15, how many does a Mag tube hold?

Nice wheel guns, Boji. I have an H&R subnose in .32 S&W Long. Nice thing is it's a little more hearing friendly.

Something a little different, a bud scored some blue aluminum mags and sold me two. I think they look nice with some 855 green tips.

I haven’t loaded it up yet. I’m assuming it’ll be close to 19 or 20 based on similar guns I have.

Those mags are pretty cool. I scored a few the other day myself. Although not nearly as stylish as yours.

Those of you who like myself go to gunshows are familiar with the sight of tables at gunshow where various groups have raffle tickets for sale. Usually they are youth shooting groups raffling a Ruger 10/22, or a conservation group raffling a shotgun and so on. Today I saw something at a gunshow that may be considered a sign of our times. A group was selling raffle tickets and the prize to be given away was -----------------3 boxes of 12 gauge shotgun shells!!!

At Pheasants Forever a couple of weeks ago we did a raffle for 500 rounds of 9mm.
No, I didn't win

I used to live in California. A sporting goods store in Fresno had a grand opening in 2015, and I hadn't seen so much .22LR ammo in one place in years. Prices, if I recall correctly, were insane. Hopefully this craziness will pass soon.

Can't wait to fire this Springfield 87A 22

Ahhh the old “clackety clack”/“gill gun”! I have one of those. Mine had a nasty looking varnish on the stock and I refinished it. But the dern thigh is INE of the most accurate 22’s I’ve ever shot. Another great thing about them is how quiet they are. Load it up with 22 short CB rounds and it’s as quiet as if it were suppressed. Fun guns for sure.

BEAUTY Scott!

[doglegg]

Scott, is that the for runner of the .22 magnum? If so a rare breed.

No clue what that is......

[doglegg]

.22WRF was a for runner to the .22 magnum, a 45 grain bullet, a very hot round for it's day. No longer loaded except on rare special runs.

[jerryd6818]

I thought .22 WRF (Winchester Rimfire) was .22 Magnum. My first pistol, a Ruger Single-Six came with interchangeable cylinders for .22 & .22 Mag.

Did a little research and found out I thought wrong BUT the general conscientious of opinion was that WRF ammo can be safely shot in a Mag cylinder even though the ammunition manufacturers don't recommend it.

Very cool Mike! I love sporting clays. I don’t get to shoot them much, but they are sure fun, and humbling!

When it comes to shotguns, I'm a Mossberg 500 die-hard. That Beretta sure is nice, though. Hope it shoots as good as it looks!

[Quick Steel]

Never shot sporting clays. Did shoot skeet back in the day which I enjoyed very much. Used a 20 gauge.

Thanks guys. I shoot in a sporting clays league with my old High School / hunting buddies every week. Lots of fun.

Was shooting my Citori, but one of my buddies let me try this Beretta last year and I liked it. He had previously cerakoted it green - and since my High School and College colors were green, I decided I liked it. So I bought it off him. Plus it's easy to see in the gun rack, since it's the only green one! It's a gas gun, so very soft shooting. I shoot left handed, and was able to set it up with cast-on with the stock shims.
