A buncha folk shooting Henry's.

I only shot an Anschutz, there. Did get a sweatshirt.

Ya know, I'd love to surround my old Win. 52-B with all of the new fandaglia. When I lock'er down in a rest, 10 shots, one hole. But she's old school, walnut stock, has a horn adjustment and limited forerest adjustment. No cheek rise, the sling mount is tied to the forerest.

The bitches could go on, but the fact remains that locked down in a rest....10 shots, one hole.

The Western Wildcat Match is in Phoenix (well, just north of) in March (15 - 19) next year. The Roadrunner used to always be held at South Mt Range the weekend before. It's not like it's a long way from you.

I wish the PJ's would bring one out to the range............I need some 7.62 brass. :) They work with the 249 SAW. I've got damn near 60lbs of 5.56 brass.

There's a range right next to the Moose Run golf course where they train with M-2's. It's a comforting sound.

M2 or M4's?

The PJ's use our range for the CQB training for each class. So they're out there 4x a year for 10 days at a stretch. The only other local range available is the DOE range at Kirtland and they can't do squad tactics there because of the DOE RSO's clilmbing up their ass every step of the way.

We don't allow M2's on the range. Even with our acreage it's too much gun. We are certified for up to 10lb plastic charges, slightly higher charges of Military grade dynamite but I don't have the exact weight off the top of my head. So the materials folks at Sandia Labs use our range for testing. For bigger blasts they have to go down to the EMRTC facility in Socorro, NM.

Ma Deuce.
 
We brought one out for "Full Auto" day back in July. We had a new 30ft high berm that we thought would be sufficient, not so. Way too much rock.

You saw the "berms" they use at JBER. Between 4000 and 5000 feet high.
