Atrocious lighting......
Don't need the long story but here's the Readers Digest version. About 10-15 years ago was having debilitating ear aches. Got that finally fixed,albeit with what felt like an ice pick and a shop vac,steered by a true artist in his field,doctor. The end result was besides massive relief, my eyesight got to near 20/20 for the first time in my life. Lifelong wearer of eye glasses for near sighted.
But having really good eyesight,vise like grip,and super slow heart rate only goes so far bullseye shooting indoors if the lighting is so bad you can't see the ____ing sights.
Oh I found the load. 4g 700X behind a H$G 68 in the new BE Commander.Only took 4 trys,batta-boom. But have been basically shooting instinctively cause of the lights(lack of). About like closing your eyes?
Hope to finish the new recoil spring tester this a.m. before heading to the woods with CB varmint rig. It's pretty slick,have had fun making it. Put a new 14# Wolff spring in the gun and it works perfect but,that's just what the pkg says? The spring that came in the pistol was d.o.n.e. Springs are funny.... what it "sposed" to be and what it "is" don't always match up. Same with the springs in the clip.... yes,clip. It's a sheet metal reference that has...oh well,forget it.
Anyway....
Ordered a used,old(as new,minty,nobody wants it) Simmons spotting scope for beer $$. Angled eyepiece and lower X,with focusing down to feet. Will leave it setup indoors. Although it does come with a nice back packable case? It may see some use in the field as a test monkey(for a nicer unit) but am really excited for its use indoors(50' range).
The round plastic handles I mounted on our 3,4500 lubers have been working extremely well. Been lubing the 200g .45's with some soft'ish 50/50 (BW/Vaseline) and the plastic ball handles are NICE.
