So we had some fun last night shooting tracers at some steel targets!









Just before this we shot a 1/2 pound Tannerite target with about a half quart of gasoline on top.....
I'll post that video in the next day or two. I have to get to work in a bit.

Pics were taken hand held with my old 10d. Yes I know I should have used the tripod....

I hope it was pretty wet when you were shooting, or after you left it may have went up in smoke.  Tracers are fun, but only when it's wet.  I'll only make that mistake once

I bounced one off a hill about 7 or 800 yards from where I was shooting. That would have been a long run.

Cool. I never thought of long exposure on tracer fire. I might have to give that a try.

This October was the wettest October in Missouri history, so he's good.


You are right about only shooting them when it's wet though.
