I went last Wednesday and I was the only person there in the afternoon. Nice!
As you said, Vet. Day is open. I am planning to go to test and practice pistol side.
Also practicing rifle for upcoming club fun match. Not sure exactly when tho....
Fellow hobbyist are welcomed to come and clock pistol ammo.

i kno it costs $5 and only on weekends, but can i literally stay at silhouette side from 8am-4pm?  is there a time limit?
If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.

On Veteran's day.., my friend said he was going around 10.
So I'll effort that. My son needs some trigger time too.
And if I'm lucky, my other son can drop in too.
Unfortunately that would mean dad has to fire up the dillon.
How about you? Need some trigger time?

I'll probably be there early like 8am until 10 or 11. So I hope to see you there.

I never had anyone mention a time limit to me.

You need a time out. Now go sit in the corner facing the wall.

When I first got my 22 handgun, I looked forward to buying a brick or two of 22 and spend an entire afternoon on the silhouette side, plinking away.  As it turns out, after about 200, jamming mags got old for me.  That was even when I could alternate and shoot my other centerfire handguns and my buddy's 10/22.

I might head over to the handgun range tomorrow as well.  Maybe not until noon or so though.

Macsac don't shoot the chrono, shoot through the antennas!!!

since you didn't label your reloads please bring all powder and primers for free distribution as a punishment.

Old guys always say that, I thought I could remember...

So how'd it go?  Was there a good load in there, which you forgot to write down, so now you gotta do over?   I've done the same... no worries!  Lol  ;)

OF was very patient with this noob
mahalo, OF

the load i thought was on the lighter end of the range was on the higher end of the range
and the load that i thought was on the higher end of the range was barely cycling

all in all, a good lesson learned

next time, i'll get the jedi mind trick lessons

My pleasure mac.
Though we did not bench your ammo, judging from your velocity readings you got the potential for some really straight shootin' ammo.

As for your marksmanship....
Well, let's just say a little coaching is needed there.
We should do that.
