    A nice stroll around the raspberry orchard on a nice warm balmy evening last night with the CZ 452 22lr. Longest shot only 103 yards with subs.

    Is there a reason or just personal preference?

    Brining it sucks all the blood back into the bones somehow. I think it can also help add moisture.

    I normally always cook it long and slow in a stock anyway, braising basically. Brown each piece in hot pan first then a few hours low and slow in the oven in a stock I make with lots of tasty stuff in it.

    have gone back to the the subs in this rifle, so much better for where i shoot . . . what i loose in point and shoot range i gain in getting more animals by making less noise.

    longest hit 153 yards
