Long Range time... - danm - 06-01-2015
Went to the range today with my LEO buddy, 155 yrds was the farthest I could set targets up... Oranges are my favorite reactive bio-degradable versions.... Dispatched easily of course, then I ranged a cliff band with some trees at 942 yrds... The longest shot I've taken so far was 315 yrds so...... I dialed up 10.3 MILS and hit every time...

Definitely! Love shooting with my cop friends, get to hear some accounts a little different than what the newspaper portrays...

you mean not all cops hate african americans and for no reason assault innocents?
I got a few good friends that are LEO.... so many stories of LEO helping out but t hat doesnt sell papers, people want controversy, they want stuff to be upset at...
for us, we load mags, and shoot targets. I like watermelons too, vaporize it then walk up to it... smells like awesome!
Good deal on reaching out, always fun, had a 1st round impact (lucky as all heck) with my grendel at 975 on a ipsc silhouette steel target...

SILS? havent head that one before.
if you ever come to vegas bring a rifle and stretch your legs, if i can find a load that works with my 65 i want to eventually take it to 1760 just for sh** n Grin factor lol. Hopefully the new seating die will tighten them up at bit.

SILS, I read it to mean silhouette targets?
Long Range time... - motoxxx_ryder - 06-02-2015
Ah that makes sense. Its public land so i hve a stand that takes 2 1x1s for paper targets or a 1x1 square steel pipe to hang steel targets on. need to get a hanger type though so i cna hear impacts at the mile marker.

mine look like this but beefier.instead of rebar legs they are 1 inch steel tubing and 1.5 inch ID inserts vs the IDPA 1x.5 i think it is.

Very nice, I've got access to a bunch of steel and a welder so I'll see what I can come up with...
