Here I am exploring depth of field with my new Nikkor lens and attempting to achieve an abstract image using reflections of lighting off shiny brass surface.
Shooting and reloading was my 'other' money pit hobby. It is that time of year when loading up some ammo is the right thing to do considering I am going deer hunting in the black hills in November I have a bunch from prior years but I don't shoot my rifles anywhere near as much as I shoot my cameras. I used to shoot NRA Highpower match a lot until a few years ago using an AR-15 with Krieger match barrel with a 1:7 twist to shoot the 80 grainer sierra matchkings at 600 yrds.

Very nice. I can consistently shoot a 380 yard gong with my M39 Mosin Nagant with the standard Russian army issue iron sights. Man I love that gun. Got three variants of the Nagants. M39, M44 and 91/30. I also reload them with good boxer-brass. The 30-06 is a fine round too. For hunting it is the bomb. But in a battle I'll take the 7.62x54R any day over the 30-06. Haven't gotten into hunting yet though. Would like to though. November eh? Got any room in your hunting party?
We are full up unfortunately, and you'd need to draw for a non resident tag... That took 3 years of buying preference points with the DNR before we entered the lottery drawing this year!
