I dug out an old Remington 721 .30-06 I picked up a couple years ago. Cleaned it up good and got it to the range today. Only 25 yards at our LGS but put 5 Shots in less than 1-1/2 “‘off hand, open sights! Going to be a keeper for sure! Date codes show Sept 1949 production.
Next up is an old Pre-64 .30/06 ( (1957) that I need to put a recoil pad on. May have to drag along a Savage 99, .300savage with that one.
Got several old rifles that need cleaned and shot.
My 1917 Enfield and two 03-A3’s, all professionally sporterized have been shot quite a bit recently and are keepers too!
Our 2 indoor range stores here in Bakersfield have been sold to turners outdoorsman so we are not real sure what the future looks like. Real pain in the ass to go out anywhere locally to shoot. Big changes coming....
