Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Thank you for that, it definitely helps.
I shot my first 50 at Cheyenne Wells:
It split my eyebrow in two and there I am, bleeding like a stuck pig with an idiotic grin on my face.
My wife looks at me and goes :
"Oh damn, now we're going to have to buy you one..."
The rest is history.

LOVED the Cheyenne Wells MG shoots! Really miss them.

Sensory overload, the chance to shoot some rare stuff and those night shoots were crazy.
Great bunch of guys and good safety rules.
Those shoots were awesome!
I still have a few shirts and a mess of tracer that will probably never get shot. People dont under stand how cool these shoots were. My friend and I would share a spot. We'd bring back a 55 gallon drum of cases. Ammo used to be so affordable.
Video of mine from years ago, and this was AFTER the Mad Minute - I missed that.....

Speaking of rare stuff, last shoot I went to I was just walking around looking and watching, only had a little to spend - when one table stopped me dead in my tracks. There was a German Stg44 and an M2 Carbine, I just HAD to shoot those two! SO worth it.

That is a fun video!
I recognized Greg Satre of Denver Bullets at the beginning.
A really good guy who I miss now.
Funny watching tracers as they are normally the 5th round in the belt, so each one you see flying has 4 others rounds you don't see.
Tracers burn out between 2000 and 2500 meters, so those rounds are really flying a long distance!
That shoot had a heck of a long impact area.

That kid in the orange sweatshirt at the beginning is my grandson. He's 27 now, been in the Navy for 4 years, is now married with 2 stepsons and a wonderful wife, and they recently bought a house in Norman, OK. So that's how old that video is. And they said the impact area was clear all the way to Kansas, I hear there's oil wells there now. Probably some of those damned big windmills too.

Super Video!! I remember hearing eerie howling ricochet rounds overhead once in a while. I never heard of any problems at those shoots, beside a small brush fire. The bowling ball cannons taking shots at the RC aircraft was entertaining, it all was!
I think you get a 3-day buzz after those shoots, I did!
