vari-x II and III on my 3-9 and 4.5-14. I think the scope on my 10/22 is a pine ridge. not a bad scope. It is a 2-7 power.

I found a guy south of tacoma who has two or three old stocks and next time i go down that direction i am going to get one from him. He only wanted 50 bucks for the stock and it is an old original. Not a new factory model one. I like that it is old.
Shoulder is doing better. I just got my arm out of the sling on friday but i still only have about 20-30% of movement and i can barely lift my arm up past my waist line. But i am progressing. My Physical therapist says she is hoping that in 6 weeks i will be able to duplicate 100% movement to my other arm. But not strength. she said that will take a while to rebuild. But she said quicker than average because it is my dominant hand and i will naturally use it more. SO pluses across the board.
Shot the pellet gun the other day also. lol....funny to you guys but i could barely shoulder it. Told my Physical therapist and she freaked. Guess i have to hold off of doing that for another week or so.

Good to hear Jay, The PT's dont like it when you go pat their instructins. When I broke my pelvis after I finally got home I went out ATVing with some buddies, I was very sore but I think it helped me more than anything. Keep us posted and take care.
