Happy holidays from Grappling with Guns. This year I got two early presents, a Ruger MKIII678 for target practice (and maybe some rabbit hunting in the future) and a gun case from Cabella's.
My wife got me the case and I got myself the gun. I took the Ruger out to the range along with my S&W M&P compact chambered in .40 S&W. It's nice to have a .22, although don't delude yourself that getting a .22 will reduce your ammo cost. I shot the same amount of .40 caliber ammo as I did the last time I went to the range. I just added a couple hundred rounds of .22 to the bill!
I hope you all have a great holiday, and I hope you find something nice under your tree.
