My new shootin range

Post by Wabash kid » Tue Jul 25, 2023 8:55 pm

I just finished my new shootin range, I can shoot from 50 yrds out. It’s made of railroad ties, 3/8 inch AR 500 armor plates. It’s good for all pistol calibers, and rifles chambered for pistol cartridges.

Well it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. As I said the range is good for all pistols and rifles chambered for pistol calibers. I belong to a really nice club 10 mins from my house, we have ranges from 25 yrds out to 400 yrds, I still go there to shoot the high power rifles. But I’m really blessed to live in a rural area of Indiana, where I can just walk out my back door shoot my cawboy guns awhile, have a cup of coffee and shoot a little more. We moved out here from Illinois 8 yrs ago, so I can really appreciate the freedom to do this.

That's a nice range. It sure is nice to just go out the back door and shoot.

Well done, but what are all those funny looking trees in the background? :)

Seriously, though, you are so right about having a range in the backyard. Congrats.

Did you half on on the second row so the crack/joint is not the same through the stack?
