Maybe you fellas are like me a little bit.

While I surely do enjoy speculating about what neat great rifles are available for only $X, the sheer joy of plinking sometimes is of great value.

This weekend I took a couple of friends to the National Forest, where we met another old friend, and spent a couple hours plinking at various targets of opportunity. It was such a great time spent with friends, in the great outdoors, unmolested by anybody for 2 or so hours.

The 22 long rifle in a simple CZ bolt actioned rifle which seems supernatural in its ability to connect with good ammunition cannot be underestimated. Using simple Federal bulk pack, the old rifle just shot so well.

All that for a price hardly worth mentioning.

I am so happy I had the opportunity to shoot in these circumstances.
