I gotta do more reloading for 308. Starting over development with new brass and different boolits. Exciting stuff. Got some low SDs today with some initial testing.

The range was pretty good shape today. It was mostly dry. Some standing water in the target stand area at 100 and some areas of mud in the parking area near the silhouette range, but overall the range was in pretty good shape considering the weather the past few days. It was a little breezy at times, but didn’t rain. Looks like more rain this afternoon tho.

Quick range session this morning to zero new handgun red dot and irons. Quality 50 rounds and out. In the past, I would probably have shot 100-200 on a day like today. I was going to shoot another 50, but have come range sessions coming up, so gonna save it for those days.

Damn ammo shortage/pricing.  :grrr:  :(

I bet HPD has plenty of practice ammo.

Worth applying to the academy?   :geekdanc:

You should look up what their fitness test is like.  IIRC the 1 mile run was like what 11 mins.

I think you should be physically fit enough to pass.  Good luck with the other evaluations. . .  :P  :rofl:

Can I take the proctologist examination a 2nd time?

Going to the HDF open shoot on sat. Bringing my coworker and her husband. He's a new gun owner and reloader. The wife thought his AR was too heavy, so gonna let her try Mrs.CMO's one.  Both already took the pistol class.

Who is shooting this weekend?

I installed an RMR and new sights on my second Gucci Glock, so same-same setup with the other Gucci Glock.  I was going to keep one with RDS and one with irons and shoot both like that along the way.  But with aging eyes, I have fully bought on the value of RDS on handguns.  I also have other handguns with irons, so when I saw a screaming deal on on an RMR last Nov, I picked it up.  Have had it for almost 6 months and finally getting around to using it. 

Also got my holster for the 19 with RMR Dremeled down more (by a good friend).  It fit ok, but an area by the hood was contacting the RMR body and causing slight damage. 

Loaded up some more .308 as well, but probably won't get around to shooting that for a while.  Will update in the reloading thread.

Just kidding.  Good on you for fostering new folks into shooting community.  You setting them up with ammo?  :hmm:

I work with his wife, so I'm gonna allow him maybe 50rds per platform.  He's getting into reloading.  Has 1 AR, but it's a collectors type safe queen.  He's waiting on a CZP10F, AR (workhorse), and shotgun to come in.  He hasn't shot at a distance of less than 25 yards for pistol and 50 yards for rifle yet.  IDK if he even has factory ammo. I'm not gonna allow him to use any reloads in my guns.

His wife will come too, and she feels that most AR's are too heavy. So I'm gonna let her try Mrs. CMO's lighter AR. She might only shoot like 5 rds.

Good on you!  Looks like a good base of firearms from that list.  Looks like some influence from you.   ;D

Sucks to be getting into shooting now.
