Thanks, Bob, deadly accurate as well.:)
Here are a few groups I was using 22 LR Subsonic ammo CCI 40gr, the scope is a Hawke made for .22 rifles etched subsonic reticle with 25 yd increments out to 200 yds which is very helpful, I got lovely 1/2" groups at 50 yds, I also have the rifle fitted with a Wildcat moderator, the rifle shoots whisper quiet.

SOTD 01/16/2022 That's my Sunday shave this morning - unfortunately, again before work. Therefore, today I needed even more encouragement in the morning to start the day well. No matter, the task has been perfectly accomplished ;)
Before: Shower and PAA Cube Mentholated
Shaving Soap: Lodrino "God Shave The Queen" (If you don't know that soap, just to explain its scent a bit: citrus top notes of bergamot, orange and lemon with a touch of clary sage, resting on delicate green tea and a light floral background of jasmine, rose and soft ambers).
Brush: Simpson Commodore X2, Best Badger knot 21mm
Straight razor: J.A. Henckels Solingen Zwillingswerk Friodur 72; blade 13/16 of inch, 1/2 ground, made of stainless, cold tempered steel

My wapi really gave up a super duper smooth shave today
Attachment 338798
Wow…I’m totally amazed!
I ordered a few A&E samples, and had ordered this one just out of curiosity.
In the end, the one I thought I’d really like, I didn’t. And this one was (surprisingly) my favorite.
Not only my favorite from the bunch, but now one of my absolute favorites overall.
It has a cannabis leaf scent, but not a skunk weed, nor a stoner illegal smell.
It is a cannabis scent, but beautifully mixed with other scents. It gives a super clean and elegant scent.
My wifey loves it, and said it is now her favorite scent.
And I absolutely love it as well. So much so, that I just ordered their splash.
Mind you, I am a born-again Christian, and would not sport a straight-up stoner scent.
I paired it with my Ralf Aust for a crazy smooth and refreshing head and face shave.
I highly recommend it.
Try it.
Straight: Ralf Aust
DE: Carbon Shaving Cx-316L (head shave)
Lather: A&E “Cannibliss Santal”
Balm: Soap Commander “Integrity” (unscented)
Splash: A&E “Cannabliss Santal”
Brush: Omega (synthetic)
Bowl: Soap Commander (large)

Heading to town, “Sunday Brunch” shave
This 5/8 Dubl Duck Special # 1 is one of the first custom restores I ever did for myself ..
The scales are from an Antelope I took in Colorado in the early 90’s
Longest shot I ever took on large game, laser checked at just over 1/2 mile at 882 yards
Custom 308 I built using a Nosler 150gr Balistic Tip
One shot, high shoulder hit within 2” of my PoA walked across the eastern CO prairie to find him DRT
I kept those horns for years before using one to make this set
The edge is one of my originals done using a Norton 4/8 only..
The shave this morning was smooth and comfortable multi directional
Soap is from JoAnna at the Shave Den Shop she is one of the old school Soap Mistresses
Bourbon Vanilla followed by her Splash in the matching scent
