Barrack range pics
Some pics of Joe and one of his favourite toys there was a lot of oohs and arrs coming from his trench so I assume the old girl was delivering the goods.

Re: Barrack range pics
I wish we had some ranges with 'trenches' over here I thought Joe was taller than that though

Re: Barrack range pics
I was thinking those holes were pretty deep too. Do you get a ladder to help you climb out?

Re: Barrack range pics
The old crocks in the club need ladders to get in and out, here is my method......

Incidentally, i was using reduced loads with cast lead boolits in case any one is wondering about the lack of recoil.

Re: Barrack range pics
Now that was interesting Joe. Didn't know you were a youtube kind of shooter.
I used to be young and spry too... wonder if I could spring out of that hole like you did?
Maybe I could manage a time or two. Slow, panting, struggling spring that is.

Re: Barrack range pics
Robert, i just figured out how to use the movie function on my Nikon Coolpix camera, the only problem is it wont upload to my hotmail or photobucket so you -tube is my only option.
I,ll be deleting it shortly anyway.

Re: Barrack range pics
Over here the only things most commonly found in holes in the ground are rabbits and funnelwebs. Being a confirmed arachnophobe I have a deep suspicion of holes in the ground. I'd need to fire a few rounds into the hole before I got in - probably wouldn't make me very popular at the range
Still, in the event of a richochet or explosion its only the unimportant things like your head that is exposed.

The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.

Re: Barrack range pics
The trenches on this barrack range have a wooden cover and are usually full of webs and spiders, the army dont seem to use them very much. However the ETR, Gallery ranges etc. without covered trenches usually contain frogs, toads and the odd rabbit which we have to evict before moving in.
