glad i dont have .50 beowolf yet...

and finally, something i wish i had, is the .338 lapua magnum. box of 20 is over $120...
I fired my grandpa's 338 ultra mag, even with a brake on it, shooting from a crouched position knocked me on my ***. Very powerful round!
Prices of ammo is taking the fun out of shooting for me.

I'm in, and can teach some basics to first timers
Please need to supply their own ammo
Reeds Indoor Range in Santa Clara or Targetmasters West in Milpitas are probably the best bets

Sounds good. I trust you and Daniel around guns. I know I wont accidentally get shot

Anyways - I am really down for this. Unfortunately I don't seem to know anyone that is willing to either meet up for this sort of thing, or actually be there when agreed upon. If it's at a time I can make, I will be there. Reed's or I hear there's a pretty good place in SSF.

Glock 19, 21ft, 4th time shooting. 74 total shots fired before this session.

That's really not that bad, and I think I have that same Cuisinart blender. Sweet!

You keep track of how many shots you have fired? Is this normal?

I sold my 338 cuz Remington match ammo was 134.00 dealer price a box.


I'd be down but it'll have to be soon. We may have to sell the scar to pay rent. If that happens I'm done. I will have lost ALL intrest in shooting.

Not really. I just know this target was from my fourth time.

First time, shot 16 or 17 shots. 50/3 (Went with my bro and sis.)
Second time, shot 25 shots, 50/2 (Went with mom).
Third time, shot 33 shots, 100/3 (went with housemate and housemate's gf)

So, total of 74 or 75 total shots so far.

So... to date, only shot 100 rounds, maybe?

I'm down. Its kinda funny to see this actually. I ran into some subaru folks yesterday at the range. Seems a friend of a vendor here had a birthday. Had my BAMX shirt on and someone noticed that while I was shooting. lol

Im actually going to reeds on friday around 2pm ish. I will bring the suby.

Wife is trying to decide between the sig 226 in 9mm or the H&K full frame in 9mm.

She loves the sig but doesnt like the lack of mechanical safety.
