Title: HOME TARGET RANGE
Post by: Rhinoron247 on April 18, 2011, 11:57:45 AM: Made great progress on my target range this weekend. 100 yrd rifle and 50 yrd pistol stations with a launcher installed for clays over the pond. Shooting bench, pistol rest and pistol target station built and finished.

I have used all scrap lumber and materials I have scavenged. Traded a horse for the Excavation work. So this project so far has been Zero out of pocket.

Excavator will be coming next week to dig out the hillside and finish the back stop.

Was able to put a few rounds down range but with 20 mph winds yesterday and today didn't want to waste anymore ammo. Can't wait for all the summer shooting.
