I believe he was the gent with the Hoppin' 10/22 and the '69 T-Bolt! That was some gorgeous wood.

Ya I'll be at the shoot on sunday. I shoot the ruger 10/22 made up to look like an Anshutz for the standard class and I'm waiting on my new Kimber HS to come in for the hunter class. I've got the big red goatee and shoot with my leather Harley jacket on(hey its warm and stops the movement) till I get a vest from Chris. That's ok, once you get into a "zone" thats all you want to think about. I'll say hi on Sunday. Shakes

Thanks "Mordecai". You guys won't be able to get rid of me that easily. I think I've finally found something that I truely enjoy doing. So I'll be around for awhile. Thanks to you and all the others for the support and encouragement. Shakes aka Matt

I remember you. I saw you there once before with the 10/22 that's built almost exactly like the 10/22 that I started silhouette with (B&C Anschutz stock, etc). Weren't you shooting a bolt gun with a LOT of figure in the walnut at least one relay last Saturday?

Thanks for the avatar, it fits. Yeah it is a T-bolt with custom stock done by Jim Benson. I'm told buy my father who gave me the gun(lucky) that the blank cost $750.00. Maybe that one needs to be put in the safe. Tried to put the avatar in my profile but its 1.6kb to big. thanks though. Matt
