I looked at border patrol, I'm too old
I looked at pimping, but I would be getting high on my own supply, I looked at becoming a professional vagabond but I like to shower every day. There is however a light at the end of the tunnel as of today, and I hope it isn't a freight train. My son has been looking at houses since he rents and it tired of that racket and he can't find anything in the school district he wants to be in so he may buy my property and build a place, that would mean I can drop the price of my house to fire sale pricing and do away with my last debt, the mortgage. Beth and I would buy the next house with cash and I won't be a mechanic anymore except for my own stuff and helping friends.
Speaking of helping friends, Jim you get that rebuild kit for the VW seat yet?
The boss was in a rather condescending mood this morning and after the third time he was 5hitty to me I stopped what I was doing, told him to check himself and leave me alone, I am not sure if it was the realization that he was being a turd or the realization that he was in range and my fists were balled up. he gave me a big project and stayed away from me for the rest of the day.
Well screw the treadmill tonight, I am going hiking.

7.62x51 works well enough but 7.62x63 can really send a round down range. That said, I really like dad's 6mm Remmington for shooting nice and flat. A neighbor kid broke his nose when the scope hit him when shooting his 7mm. Twice.
6.5 Creedmore seems to be well liked by a lot of people but I have no experience with it.
At the last church spoon festival we had a Marine sniper as our guest speaker and he brought his 22-250. That is a pretty hot round. I enjoyed watching the trails in the humidity as the round went across the valley.
We were also shooting mortar fireworks like clays. You can tell when you hit them.
Joe, it may be an XD, but I am not sure it would be any use to them. They probably have the rounds in with the pointy end to the rear of the magazine.
