Range Report: daily plinking

[North Country Gal]

I have one of those set up as a swinging target at just 25 yards. Have shot it with pellets and CBs, Quiets and now and then SV. Never had any issues with ricochets or bounce back.

Thanks. I can use that information.

Hey Gene, I have a few of those that I shoot here in the yard.
I've blasted them with everything from a .177 pellet rifle to a 444 and have never had any issue.
15 to 50+ yds.
I did break a second 5/16" bolt with those ole 325+ gr cast and the 444 one day last week.

Since I had two posts saying it was safe to shoot rimfire at 35 yards I decided to hang ‘em and shoot ‘em. But I had to tromp through the mud to do it.

They are a lot easier to see painted orange and really make a lot of noise when hit. If hit off-center they spin. It’s dusk so I shot just one tube of HV.

I’m using my new prescription safety glasses.

I like these because without the laces they slip on and off and are easy to clean.

Love my Oboz best shoes I have ever worn.

Love my Oboz best shoes I have ever worn.

They give the best arch support of any shoes I’ve worn. I currently have five different Oboz although four are two pair exactly the same. I switch between the same kind pair so they get an extra day to dry.

The five pair doesn’t include two older worn out pair like the ones in the picture. I save them as mud shoes.
