Count me in.[Hyper]
What is it?
BTW - your post count is almost a mile.
Bring some pumpkins and shoot 'em...
Kind of tradition, the first shoot after halloween..
Are pumpkins dense enough to "water balloon" with a high powered rifle like I've seen people do with a watermelon?

Got seven waiting in my garage to roll down the Green Mile!
Just hope by that day they're not piles of goo!
Or the guy who collects my trash will be one P.O'd dude.

And fun toys. I just ordered a couple of AR lowers for my son and I and we will be building early next year, nothing fancy, just econo plinkers. Once we get them done, we would love to come to one of the shoots. Anything special we have to know or do before we can come?
I was up there for the first time on Wednesday at that same lane.....nice place! Anyone know the distance? We set up between the Pines off the first road, walked it and came up with about 110 to the berm.......
Did you happen to see the Elk carcass about 5-10ft in front of the downed tree on the right?
I was impressed with the area, seemed pretty clean.......we packed out one bag out of trash compared to filling the truck at Rampart.....
