RE: Bought my first rifle that isn't 75 years old - Gusso - 07-30-2024

I've been spending some money lately on the gun front. Just bought a red dot and mount for my CZ 75. I love shooting it but iron sights are getting hard for my soon to be 63 years old eyes.

Now I shoot Eley Match for about $$1800 a case.

Yo bdutton, check out Whidden Gun Works for high end ammo. I recently bought powder at a good price there. Iirc, he doesn't add sales tax. Currently has 3 different lots of Eley Match for $157/brick.

Pretty good targets at 100 yards with cheap Norma Tac 22 ammo (less than $4/box).

Norma tac is good stuff.

I was surprised to see such low price ammo was made in Germany. Just ordered a case for $299.95 shipped. Time to start stocking up in case Kamala wins.

Just bought another 5000 rounds. I should do this weekly if the price stays the same.

Another case is on the way!

Another case delivered the other day, another case ordered today! That's about 24,000 rounds of 22 I've ordered since getting the Ruger Precision Rimfire about 2 months ago. Kamala insurance. Not stopping yet.
Also, I'm on about 4 different sites to alert me when the CZ 457 MTR becomes available. Supposedly, next level 22 rifle.

Should have posted the targets I posted in another thread here. Today I used Norma Match 22. Pricier than the Norma Tac but not expensive - about $6/box. 3" targets at 100 yards. I bought a brick of it last week but if it continues to perform well, I'll spring for a case. I have a source to get it for $499 delivered.

The Norma Match shot well again today. So I bought more Kamala insurance. Got a case for $499 shipped!
