I attended a couple of the early Boomershoots (with sometimes inconvenient consequences), and I agree with Robert Duval about the smell of Napalm in the Morning. Except it's a little more ... emphatic .. when you hit a gallon jug of impact-sensitive explosives and it results in an exceedingly satisfying fireball.
I went to both events with my friend "Bumstead", who was a Microsoft Teckie from Mulkiteo (sp) near Seattle. He didn't have any rifles, so I brought my two best rifles.
CHOOSING THE RIFLE:
The first was a .25-06 built on a 1903A3 action by my father with a birds-eye maple stock, shooting 117 gr Nosler HPBT bullets (no photo available), and the second was a custom-made (from 'the ground up') .22-250 shooting 56gr HP bullets (see photo below).
