My Own Private Club

[Rob!]

Two days in a row, I got the club all to myself. Of course, yesterday it was -23 and today a balmy -15. Lasted 100 yesterday and 200 today. More amazing is how well the new (to me) SX-3 did in the frigid weather. I've been itching to try it but suspected it would not do well in the deep cold.

I was wrong. It fed my 1 oz 1200FPS Kents without a hitch. Interestingly, it did not like Top Gun 7/8 OZ loads but it did do fine with Kent 2 1/2" 3/4 OZ loads - and of course, with a box of 1 1/8 OZ challengers I brought along and with Aguila minishells, it makes a fine single shot.

The F3 is still my clays gun, but this little semi plaything has impressed me.

Now, since winter is over, I can get back to serious practice.

Both our sporting clays and skeet fields stay closed below -10, I haven't shot in a month. But I picked up a new SX-3 for a back up waterfowl gun, that I hope to shoot skeet with next Sunday.

You're tougher than me. I only got 75 in today before I gave up. Couldn't hit the broadside of a barn anyway.

Both of us with Blaser F3 - and now both with SX-3. Perhaps it's time for a DNA test brother.

I have actually shot an SX-3 for waterfowl for several years, I just purchased a back up gun, while there were still some available.
