Took my elderly father up to lane 4 of the N. Wolf Creek Shooting lanes a while back so he co zero in the green laser on his Beretta Tomcat.

Been doing some work on our long range shooting area the last couple of Fridays. I have berms at 460, 600, 750 and 1000 yards. Had a few minutes to try it out today. Shot 10 rounds of 6.5 CM at 750 or so yards with about a 10 mph wind at half value, 12" plate. You can just kind of see the white circle at the third berm in the middle pic. Although 5 out of 10 isn't great, I can live with it.

Dang, wish you were closer to me. I would bring a bottle of decent alcohol to shoot on a range that far.

Northwest firearms get together at your property you say?

Not quite my property but.... sure!


Bit of a drive for most of you though.

I'm sure we could make a day of it!

Sounds like you're in charge of setting it up! Thanks!

Any day at the range getting trigger time with my boy is a good day. He's a big fan of the 22 supressor. Claims it's "his now" and i'm just borrowing it. Guess i need to setup a NFA trust.

These are the good times in life right here.

Clark Rifle. Best range around. Looks like you had a great day.

This thing always puts a smile on peoples faces.

 

[MountainBear]

I've had a smile every time Rich brings that shorty .308 out. Nothing of like a four foot night time fireball!

Another perfect day testing out the new range lay out. 50 degrees and zero wind. Put targets up at all 4 berms. Not real easy to see but a little better than the picture in the previous post. So I have 8" round at 460 yards, 45% IPSC (13.5"x8") at 610 yards, 12" round at 760 yards and 18" round at 1000 yards.

Started at 1000 with my 7mm. Got a couple of hits then switched to my 6.5 CM. Missed the first three shots but hit the next 7 in a row. Measures to be about a 6.5" group. Continued on to hit at all the other plates. Think I missed twice out of the next 15-20 shots at the closer plates. Good day!

You just HAVE to keep teasing us don't you?

Might go out again this afternoon but the weather looks less than ideal. I guess you don't learn anything if you only go out in perfect weather though.

I did go out yesterday and I did learn something...... I am not very good at judging wind speed.

Ended up hitting 5/10 with my 6.5 at 1000 but the wind was pretty tough. Ended up being 12 MOA of wind correction which is something like 125" at 1000 yards.

Yep. The wind is what separates the men from the boys.

I'm still a boy.

Well, the wind has been tough the last couple of days. I hit some plates but not nearly as often as I would have liked. This is the 1000 yard plate, mostly 6.5 CM hits but a couple of 308 too.

Yesterday I started at the 100 yard range and did some more testing with my Labradar. Seemed to have figured it out a little better as far as location of the muzzle to get it to pick up suppressed shots.

And just for @bsa1917hunter, here a couple of my 10 shot groups that I shot at 100. Not 1/2 MOA but not too bad.

Very nice buddy. Great shooting. Nice rifles!!
