Gaining a Rep?

Like a lot of gunnies, I seem to be engaged in a perpetually useless do-loop known as "The Hunt for .22 Rimfire". I don't do it a lot, but if I'm going by a LGS and I have the time to stop, I sometimes stop in.

I went into one this week. The owner and I know each other by sight only. I've never seen him at the range I use or at any of the matches that I've shot in.

He greeted me when I walked in the door thusly: "Hi. Hey, I hear that you shot a Mosin at a 3-gun match."

I replied: "Yeah, and a Krag."

"Not exactly your 'high-speed, low-drag' match rifle."

"Yeah, well, I didn't come in last."

So now, I'm the local eccentric match shooter. There are probably worse reputations to have.

Among other things lately, the price of 22LR has really cut into my shooting, I like to take the 50+ year old Huntsman to steady me back to basics. Now it's hardly cheaper to shoot .45 ACP.
Keep up the good shootin'
