I haven't had a chance yet but live vicariously through those of you that have taken advantage of this weather. So what did you take out shooting and how many rounds did you put down range?

Friday I fired my AMD-65, Kar K98 Mauser, and my 1941 Mosin Nagant 91/30. I only fired around 10 rounds per weapon, but for once I was actually striving to fire for accuracy. I was pleased with the results.

Oh yeah! , about a week ago though. Only fired a few rounds through my newer bench gun (thanks Septic!), and about half of a bulk pack of .22 through my Remington Charger. It was a fairly cheap and great time.

Nope but hopefully soon. I am planning on introducing about 6-10 people to shooting. Most are afraid of guns at this point. Its so damn hard for me to get to the range - half hour there, ammo is expensive, full time student - lots of work, and a job on top of that. By the time I get some 'free time' its after dark.

been shooting the 22trainer underground when the weather was bad in his basement range. we can squeeze nearly 50 yards out of it, so that has been fun and loud...
shot all day saturday with wife and friends at my place, then again just wifey and i sunday AM. i'm practicing on my 226 and 229 skills while wifey was running her 686... we did a lot of 22 shooting that day also. big fun on steel targets and dueling trees. one of our friends came out saturday and she doesn't shoot much. she has large breasts and wore a plunging v neck blouse. yup, you guessed it. it didn't take long before she got a hot casing down her shirt. she danced and skipped around pretty good before retrieving it... good times...

I've been out a few times. But I was going out when there was snow on the ground too. Can't let bad weather keep me in.

I put a few rounds through a coyote this past weekend over in Cedar Rapids. XM193 is a piss poor hunting round on coyotes. It punches nice little holes through them.

Hopefully tomorrow night after work I'll get to hit the range for a bit, Just rejoined Hawkeyrifle/pistol club here in town after a several year hiatus, so I'm looking forward to shooting on the ranges they've built since I've been away. Bringing my S&W MP15T that I just put a Swift scope on & try & get that zeroed in. Probably bring my glock 17 too, just for kicks & grins. Going to try & get 100 rounds or so of each downrange. Looking forward to next week, I get a root canal Monday, jury duty Tuesday & picking up my new MP15X on Wednesday or Thursday. Hell of a week eh? LOL

Did a little work with the ST13 .300 WSM. Now...I'll just have to wait for a few paychecks to buy more ammo.
