Where ya shootin at?

Here’s my backyard range.  176 yards from my patio.  The right side top area has 4-feet of black conveyor belt screwed to the wood which allows me to staple paper targets when zeroing in a scope.  It so convenient having my own range.

100M to the target frame for zeroing.  I can use my firebreaks to stretch to 300M. Also have access to 1mile but that’s a drive of 30 miles…

Technically, the glass is always full; half liquid, half air....

Nice!  We drive to my buddy’s Dad’s farm in Missouri where we shoot 1760 yds (1 mile).  It’s a blast!  Here’s the shooting platform we built on an old wagon.

Must be nice to have that kind of available land! I believe our 5 acres do not meet the criteria to do such a thing to many people moving to New River. 30 years ago maybe!

It certainly is!  That farm is around 900 acres.  We are looking to add another set of targets at 2000 yds too.

Very nice setup.  I like that shooting table with integrated stock/barrel support.
