I put a limb saver on the 12 gauge which helps a lot. The first time I went out with it a friend of mine tried it. He sighted it like a 22 against my advice and quickly got slapped on the cheek by it. He became afraid of it after that. My only complaint with the Mosin is that it is so heavy to use after a few minutes. Outside of that it is fun. The bolt is a little stiffer than what I expected as well. The Savage sounds like it be even more fun to fire. We tore steel targets all to pieces with the Mosin nagant. Definitely a penatrator. My friend shot a small rock and we had gravel flying all over the place. I was using 3 inch magnums for the first time. Until I put the limb saver on I wasn't about to fire the magnums or the slugs. The Stevens 94F isn't exactly easy on the shoulder with some type of recoil pad.

A little lesson learned while hunting grouse with a 12 gauge...never, EVER, carry shot and slugs in the same pouch. Just sayin'.

Just finished a solid 2 days working for my brothers helping out with the beer festival they were running. Was a runaway success to the extend they had to make a beer run midway through the first afternoon...

It was a pleasure to watch Gemili race he seems a really nice lad with none of this over the top macho crap so many sprinters seem to think is necessary.

I went to the end of Southend Pier for a walk in the wind (its 1 1/3 miles long) when two Spits flew over, closely followed by the Dakota of the RAF BOB flight. Then approx 20 minutes later both Lancaster's went overhead flying fairly low as they were in the circuit to land at Southend Airport. Only downside is that I didn't have a camera with me. Absolute surprise and totally unexpected.
He ran a cracking race as well...
