Range report 1/20/13

 :D

Arrived 9:45, rifle side. Was 6th on the waiting list. Had a nench, #94, inside of 30 minutes. Wind was gusty as I have ever seen it out there. Made my peace with my two newest 7.62 x 39 rifles.  This was my first time shooting big bore, and only my second time shooting at all, since all the scary medical shit started. It sure felt great to be back!

The difference between theory and reality is that, in theory, there is no difference between theory and reality.

No kidding about that wind, it actually damaged my target frame!   Lucky for me a fellow shooter had a power-diver & some wood screws to help square things away... Thanks again  :thumbsup:

Actually got there at 0520L, all but bench I got were taken or held... Not many people in sight but lots of "tabled" gear.   This getting worse than fishing, at least to don't have to wait for 3 hours before making my first cast ;)

Ahh, any range day is a good range day, always enjoyable regardless of the early wake up  :shaka:

Same here. Arrived at 0945. Had a bench by 1030. Lots of targets went sailing today ;D.  Oh this was the rifle side. Silouette was packed today!

Went to the bullseye pistol range after over a year of not going. Wasn't too bad and from what I noticed, it didn't seem like many people were waiting for a spot. I brought my dad and I laughed at him flinching, but towards the end he was shooting alright. Was a good day overall.

Went to the bullseye range and got to see WTF?Shane and shoot one of Chris Baker's guns.  Good day!

With the ammo shortage you'd think the range would be empty.

Is there anyone we could file a complaint with? Being that everyone has a problem with the guys reserving a bench so early and milking the time on that bench. Just wondering.......
