Was in Academy Sports this morning(Saturday) and saw Remoil back on the shelf. $8.99 for the big can. They also had 12 ga. Back in gun dept. as well as .22, 308,30-06, and a couple others on a shelf behind the checkouts at the service desk. Needed to get a new laser boresighter and some snap caps. Grabbed a can of Remoil just because. Saw a Gamo .177 air gun for $119, might go back for one and get my feet pellet gun wet. IMG_2312.JPG

I've been getting emails from Remington Ammunition on a regular basis for a couple weeks now. Trying to remain optimistic but if things don't turn around up here our vacation plans this summer may just revolve around dragging the camper to visit some aging relatives down south and hitting up gun shops, pawn shops and whatever outdoor stores we find in their areas. Do some catching up and stocking up both.

If the weather we've had keeps dragging out it might happen sooner than later.

We got 6-8" here but sunny today and will be in the 50's Tuesday & Wednesday so it'll be gone soon. Been using cb caps to shoot blackbirds off the squirrel/bird feeders. Felt good to get out.

Got up to 66°F here today. Nice to be outside without feeling I was on some Arctic trek for the north pole.

I got the Remington .22cal - not sure who made it. It shoots good. There is one pellet that is a premium and gives an extra 50 or so fps. I save those for hunting. they are about 50% more than regular pellets. good Luck.

I like the Rem oil that has a little teflon in it. Also, I like the shotgun cleaner. does not harm any surface.
I have been practicing at my BIL with the Strikeman laser practice target system. We make a little party get together with it - 4 shooters. two can shoot at a time. One session I bet 400 shots were made. When you hit, a voice calls out the ring number. You can see where the laser hits. Very nice system. Not all that expensive vs. live ammo. I think it is about $100 with one laser and each additional laser is $55. I bought the .40 and .45 and 9mm came with it.
Check out their demo video.
