You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
That is a very interesting video, starting with a series a major safety violations, followed by some pretty cool range procedures, especially the lead recycling and reloading procedures.

Very cool vid Bill! Makes me want to time travel back to simpler days!
The absolute lack of PC or nanny state shenanigans is truly awesome! I couldn't even imagine trying to recover lead at the range then casting and reloading it for duty practice. These days something like that would cause a tear in the space and time continuum, and it'd likely suck the perpetrator into an entirely separate plane then the one I work on!LOL

I saw that too--- Fifty rounds and he hands him (I guess...) a fifty cent piece. The register shows .50, but it also shows a ".05" that I'm guessing might have been his change??? Or does that mean it was 55 cents? Either way, cool!LOL

We either hang together on this, or we'll certainly HANG separately.....
No way would I trust someone shooting near my face like that. That cigar shot was really too close for comfort.

Agreed almost completely. I've known exactly
one person who I'd let do that, and I certainly wouldn't try it more than once.LOL No sense tempting Murphy that hard!LOL
Pity is: The guy I'd have faith in doing it isn't even in an armed profession anymore. Guy was a real laid back type you'd never guess would be such a shooter. He was like some kind of idiot savant when it came to shooting. He was a machine, and didn't even care.LOL
