Earlier this year I found myself in a bit of a predicament. I wanted to continue shooting USPSA but factory ammo was scarce and, what was available was rather expensive. If I wanted to continue to shoot I would either need to sell an organ to cover the cost of ammo or start reloading. Since I’m kind of fond of my insides, I needed to begin taking the steps to reload my own ammunition. The first step in the process …

This morning I was sitting at my desk when my phone buzzed. I glanced down to see that an email had come in through the WaltInPA Contact Form.

This past Friday, however, heavy rain put a damper on our plans. Instead, I headed out to Stowe on Sunday to shoot before the monthly meeting. Not having a partner to talk to, I decided to bring a couple of video cameras along to help fill the time. I set one camera …

In that post, I made mention that I had plans for more video once the match results were posted. Match results were posted a couple of weeks ago. I promptly finished up the video and uploaded it to YouTube, however, it completely slipped my mind …
Over the weekend, Hamburg Game Association hosted their monthly Outdoor 3D Archery Shoot. In addition, they were running an ‘All You Can Eat Pancake Breakfast’. Since my wife was busy with school (weekend clinical classes at the local hospital), my daughter and I hopped in the car to partake in a little breakfast and shooting. The day started off a bit cool with the ground being wet from an overnight storm. By the time we finished breakfast, the sun was …
