Had some fun yesterday! I am super super shaky from a pain pill I have to take after blowing out my lower back. So that was a huge disappointment to find out. I didn't do to bad at 60 yards. #3 bummed me, but it happens and from what I was shooting off of, and for being shaky, I can't complain.

Was that off the bench, or offhand? Either way, I'd take it if it were me pulling the trigger!
That bad back problem ain't no fun. My Sweetie has osteoarthritis, sever curvature of the spine and other issues so I know what you are going through!

I can still shoot sub 1" groups at 100 yards. BUT I have to stand on the 97 yard line to do it.

I really don't have a sense of humor that I'm aware of.  I do love night hunting, however.  affraid

The key word is "One Hole" not three or five hole shots.

Jonathan did you buy or make your drop tube. How long is the tube, does it go the total length of the barrel. Have seen some guys use a short tube (always felt it needed to be longer for what was trying to be done).
