I was picking up some range brass yesterday, getting ready for a prairie dog hunt. I was checking some of the head stamps and came across a new one to me. Anyone seen this one before?
Oh, I found it on Google alreadySimple Google search turns up www.grindhardammo.com
And several places that sell it View attachment 661863
I mowed the neighbors yard to get money for my 22….When I was a kid in the mtns, Dad gave me a 50 rnd box of 22 LR for squirrel hunting each month. Had to make each one count. Couldnt afford the spray and pray technique. Had to learn to shoot
I can remember as a young man, they took us cadets to Fort Indiantown Gap for some training. We were fortunate enough to be there at the same time some soldiers were training with the M60 and we were each able to fire a belt of ammunition ourselves. It was the first time I was ever behind a fully automatic weapon. I remember that one of the soldiers who was in charge of the weapon told be to cut down a tree that was on the backstop. I remember being disappointed. Even though their was a small thrill to the fully automatic weapon, I was disappointed because I had no idea where my rounds were hitting. I never did cut down that tree. Looking back, I must have been shooting high because I never could see bullet impacts in the dirt.Amazing how many think the faster they shoot the better they are. While full auto has A place don't think it's a major range practice besides a flex to show grande houevos
I too shot in that boyscout marksmanship program. Early-mid 60's. I still have my rifle, a Sears, Ted Williams, 22 bolt action, and It still takes out ground hogs every year.Boyscouts use to have a "Maksmanship" badge where we learned old school marksmanship fundamentals shooting 22's. I think they were Remington 541single shot. Could be wrong about that, I was probably 9 or 10, early'60's. My grandfather taught me that every shot matters and has to be on target, especially when hunting. When I was in the Army, we had M16A1 and I rarely shot full auto, horrible waste of ammo that usually hit nothing. I was blessed with an innate mindset of one shot, one kill and my load out lasted longer than most. Not good to be in a firefight and ROA. Run out of ammo. Not sure how this transitions from a head stamp question but it did.
