Title: New grouse getter
Post by: jackelope on April 19, 2013, 07:47:31 PM: Picked up the pistols my dad left me at the gun shop today. I remember the Ruger from when I was younger and have always liked it. Its a single six with both the .22lr and the .22 mag wheels. I look forward to trying it out for some grouse this fall. The Colt belonged to my grandfather and is a .357 Trooper. Both of these are now treasured possessions of mine.

We've had a Idaho grouse camp the last few years. You get to sleep in, usually get to shoot more than one critter. No pressure, and you get to see some beautiful country during a great time of year.
