Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles My local shooting range story (from today)

79S -
Check out Ben Lomond Gun Club. 1500+ members I believe and yet I often have the ranges to myself. The long range goes out to 600.

If you need help knocking the paint off those gongs, or reducing the p-dog population, I'm nearby and willing to help.

CH, come on out.....I have to be honest. I have the pasture puppies purty well cleaned out.....

If you are a good shot, you can still shoot at the 400 yd gong without chousing cows away. However, if ya miss high, ya bought a beef...grin



more zoom..

Yeah? is he for hire? Mine is fat and lazy. All he wants to do is hang out with turkeys, and ride the quad....

That pic of the turkeys on the quad reminds me of times past. Had an old Harley with some of the wiring was a little exposed in places. A roadrunner was perched on the back fender pulling the wires out of the tail light. Did a pretty good job of it too. Wasn't pleased as that was my ride at the time.

Don it looks like it is about turkey butchering time at your house.

couple more weeks...

...probably doesn't even gas it up when he brings it back...

I remember once at a rifle range in FT Hood, TX we were shooting M16s and the E-5 in the range tower said CEASE FIRE over the intercom, all of us stopped and placed our rifles in the v notch stake, with the exception of another E-5 who kept firing. The order CEASE FIRE was given over the intercom once more and the E-5 fired a couple more rounds and put his rifle in the v notch stake. The E-5 in the range tower started talking to him over the intercom and in a respectful tone said, "I said cease fire"
The E-5 started arguing with him and with in a few seconds our CO got on the intercom and yelled "GET YOUR A** OFF THE FIRING LINE NOW!

Used to have.

Been deceased nearly thirty years.

My younger brother used to sit at the house and send the heeler (his dog) out after the milking herd, about a half mile out and the other side of a big hill.

Ten minutes later, in a huge cloud of dust and flopping udders, in comes the whole herd at a dead run. Besides the obvious effects such things have on a herd of Holstein milk cows, the dog never bothered to learn where the gates were. He would just push the herd over and through whatever fence happened to be between the cows and home.

Damned heeler pointed pheasant also. Only thing he liked better than chewing on a cow was hunting birds.

mine is a pointer, too......

LOL That's cheating.

That's enough for every citizen of WY to have two!!

The public range at my club is only 200 yards long. The range officers are not exactly spring chickens though, so if you want to go out to set targets at 200 yards you need to wear a supplied ORANGE VEST so that they can see you!
