Re: Pics of where you shoot

This is my own personal Gun Range. From where I'm set up to the target is 850 yards, if I back up to the main road, I'm up to 2300 yards (can make 3000 if you move the target further up the hill...

Weekend before last. 1000 yard competition range with pits. Not that you can see. Only got off 5 rounds before packing it in.

Here's the other range in better weather. Steel at 105, 150, 220, 328, 421, 550, 650, 710 and 760.

760yd: 1/2 scale IPSC gong.

</div></div>

I almost didn't recognize that as Del Norte at first. For others, here is the same range, but on a sunny day at the 600 yard line.

Re: Pics of where you shoot

Got 1000 myself, with access to the surrounding ~25k of private land. Plenty of room to stretch my 6.5 Norma

Re: Pics of where you shoot

Do you organize tacticle shoots there with friends,clubs or others members here on the hide ?Thats a shit load of land you got there -even 1000 acres anint to be sneezed at especially if you got gun friendly neighbours .Here in NZ farmers keep cutting 10 acres of here or there and selling to life stylers who are ruining country life -OOH im scared of the gun fire crowd who ring the police and have it stopped !arsewads

well if you make it to Norcal, depending on time of year, I can take you to some nice BLM land... it ain't as pretty as 17sniper, but it's scenic in it's own way. I'll take and post pics on our next outing there in a few weeks.

Re: Pics of where you shoot

Don't worry, we've got our fair share of antigunners here in oregon, although they're largely confined to the western side of the state.

Definitely thought about the idea, but i use the land as a hunting property. Last i checked, elk aren't too fond of hi-power rifles

 

[goober]

Re: Pics of where you shoot

Both propertys I shoot run deer and are way smaller than your ranch -seriously the deer run away at shots but dont give a toss pretty much .Maybe the deer get used to it but I encourage you to run a few shoots to help your fellow Tacticle shooters providing you see no detrimental effects on your animals .

Oh how I miss this place. The neighbors don't complain about the noise, probably because they are at least a mile away.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: cpt. obvious</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Where do you guys shoot? Ranges or your own propriety? I live in NC so 100 yards of open land is tough to find. I have to drive 1 hour to my relatives farm to find 500 yards. I really want to get to 1000 this year but I dont even know where to look.

So lets see some pics of where you shoot. </div></div>

Two places:

Wyoming

Coastal Southern Oregon. It was cold yesterday. Here targets getting set up at 750 yards.

Re: Pics of where you shoot

Haven't started shooting here YET, but I have walked it and ranged various distances from my soon to be shooting line. 1200 easy, and flat. Also, 1765 is open, my buddy with a 30-378 wants to try it out.

I do miss the Mojave desert, spent a bunch of time at the Apex dry lake bed when I lived in Lv. The things that happened in that part of the country during the 50's and 60's was paramount for our current nuclear arsenal and technology. Truly amazing landscape there.

 

[Dogtown]

Here's a pic from a steel match out to 900 yards in the Wairarapa, New Zealand. It's on private farm land that one of the club members owns - lots of hills and ridges to shoot from.

Might just need to get your elk acclimated to gunfire! I shoot at a club location that has 600 yards here in Colorado. Those animals couldn't give a hoot about gunfire these days. We had to stop a match one day because a horse had wandered into the middle of the range from a neighboring property. A rabbit continued to sit within 1 foot of the steel we were shooting at on another day, despite repeated hits on the plate. These days the animals I see out there don't even bother looking up when you start shooting.

Anyway, awesome ranch you've got there! I think every 'hider who has seen this thread is probably envious.

That's one HUGE piece of steel to be able to see it at 1300 yds. Not to mention that paper. </div></div>

The steel is 14"x22". That's roughly 1x1.5 MOA at 1300 yds. That's like shooting at a 1"x1.5" patch of paper at 100 yds. Sure if you have a 1/2 MOA rifle AND it's properly zeroed for 100 yds, this should be no problem. But try finding your zero on a postage stamp.

I have a 4.5-14 scope and I can still spot hits on it, but I think it's a little narrow, as windage misses can be a little hard to spot. We're thinking of building a 3'x3' gong and painting a target spot on it as we can get out to over a mile in this spot.

Curious what the rest of you are using for LR steel.

John

At that distance, 3/4" AR Plate should be plenty----you're not using a 50BMG, are you? That might need a little more thickness. You might be able to bet a piece of that kind of plate from a welding shop that does work on mining machinery (maybe from a bucket rebuild or mine truck body repair) if you happen to be "near" any of the mines. I'm not sure where the mines are in MT.

 

[Burton]

Nice ranges guys. Hard to find anyplace to shoot over 500 here in MI.

 

[spoon063]

I'm sure a couple of you might recognize this place.

 

[catswithguns]

Damn spoon, that is a really nice range.

Damn spoon, that is a really nice range.

I would hope so, our tax dollars paid for it

Frontier Range at PNTC - some of the targets we had set for one of the matches.
Have about 1100yrds to play with.

 

[psinclair]

One of my "hangouts".

Another one. I can shoot out to and beyond a mile from here. Public land and never anyone around....

I even get friends from Wyoming to come up and hang with me......grin!
