I must be getting old. I spent a few hours with my nephew at Magnolia today, shot his Mosin that he bought off Mikey. After 30 rounds he couldnt shoot anymore, skinny kid, shoulder pain...lol. Shot the Mossberg tactical for the first time, 500 rounds without a malfunction. Fun little plinker. Decided to take my Mark II with me and zero it and test several different types of ammo. Starting I wasnt even on the paper, I used mini mags to bring it COM and was able to get it within a 3 inch diamond with those. I didnt want to waste good ammo doing that. Cleaned the barrel and was getting ready to test my first 5 rounds of Eley when something happened. My back, knees and bones in general were hurting too bad to continue. Hence the gettin old title. Three hours was enough for me today. Maybe I was just having a bad day or maybe its cause Im 48 and overweight. Had big plans, shoot the Mosin, shoot the 10/22 and Mossberg, zero the Mark II and shoot my 1911's, which I havent had a chance to do yet. Well, 20% aint bad. Maybe next week.

Come shoot a match with us. We have one this Sunday you could shoot your 1911 in. That'll make you feel young again!

I was listening to Jethro Tull while reading and "You're Never to Old to Rock and Roll" came on just before I got to this. But old we've become.

 

[Mrs. Hammer]

Your only as old as you feel from what I been told. My joints say I'm hitting on about 70, but my mind tells me I'm in my early 20s, though my real age is almost 30. Oh and if ya judge age on appearance I'm a teenager. I don't think I know how old to feel.

[p moore]

I hear ya, I woke up this morning with a catch in my back. That never used to happen. I would like to say I was trying out some new moves or something, but no. Just damn sleeping. Go figure.

Went to Hernando to get some feed at the co-op, and after paying for it went to the ramp to get them to toss it down to me (back up to a loading dock, prolly about 5 1/2 feet high or so). Nobody around, so I got out, walked around and went in. When I found him, he said "just jump down there and I'll hand you the bags, so's we don't bust 'em."

I stood there debating that 5 1/2 foot jump for long enough that he finally snickered and said "Gettin' older sucks, eh?"

Yes. It does.
