I have used "finger cots" from the drugstore to keep the snow out of my muzzle for years. You can shoot with them in place and the column of air in the barrel blows them out before the bullet ever gets there.

Not the best shelf road time. 

Sounds like you will have a Muley report for us soon. He's headed home from the Spring Fling. 

Can't believe the snow out that way, but the Bighorns were getting snow last evening. 

Next it will be 90 to 100 degrees. Crazy!

on the way back from Mike's spring fling we stopped to visit with Ben and family. Their guest cabin was quite cozy. I got a chance to drive the FC, the thing is a beast!

Yard sale score!
I have a habit of always looking at gas cans. 
I’ve been telling myself to quit buying rusty gas cans but I’m still drawn to them every time I see one……
When I saw this one I thought it must’ve been a modern one because it looked so nice. 
It’s still shiny bare metal inside and looks like it may have never been used?

Very nice find!    I confess I like the NATO-style cans more for ease and not leaking during filling, but your new can is a cool find indeed.
