Range Report Sunday 2/3
« on: February 03, 2013, 05:12:09 AM »
Arrived around 5am to find it quite barren. The usual regulars are here. But it is not as full as usual. Could it be that Super Bowl Sunday won't be very busy? We'll see I guess. The wind is gusting right now. Pretty bad. It is also very cool.

It is windy and then gusts. If you are shooting .22 I wouldn't come. If you are shooting .223 and bigger I would come down. Waiting list is not that long.

Yes! I was hoping it was going to be empty! I'm going to try curve bullets in the wind with my .22

It took me about 60 rounds of .22 to hit my first golf ball at 220.  ;D

220 yards? Nice! I was having tons of fun hitting the 100yard chicken silhouette (using stock 10/22 sights) on one of the super windy/slighty rainy days earlier this year.

Good think I got some 555round boxes to throw away lol

That the best time to shoot 22. Learn to play with the wind.

I managed to dial in my el cheapo scope by shooting at the dirty on the first berm when ever the wind stopped. Took me about a hundred rounds but I was able to get it close enough to hit the smaller objects in the 75 and 100yrd line.
