cold shot Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Well folks, gonna break in that new membership card to the YSA range on Sunday. Plannin' on takein' the Marlin 336W, VZ24,K.Kale Turk '38, and maybe the 8MM-300 Win mag for spin around the range. I'll see how many times the shoulder will hurt. Will post some target reports on Monday. That is if I don't tear up the targets too bad. It just goin' to be some much needed stress relief, According to my wife an' daughter..Have a good week end everyone,see you on Monday...Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenden Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Dave, My over priced hand holder tells me its not safe to be under stress and handle a firearm. Becarful and don't hurt urself, and hopefully the paper won't return fire. Brenden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good report too. the 8mm-300 win mag woke up the neighborhood when I unload a couple of 150-s at 3450fps. The marlin 30-30 shredded the 10,9 rings real good. The vz24 was doin' her job too till a couple o'turk rounds were stubborn to shoot off. Had to smack em' a couple times to bark. The target never got off a shot..My arsenal of 3 unloaded 175 rounds...Now I gotta reason to reload some more. A feller was unloadin' with a M1 Garand, lotta noise, then heard the CLINK!!, It's reload time. He left, and I got 69 rds of 06 brass for reloads. Gonna give em' to a buddy that has a Garand...All in all it was a very destressfull day. Gotta do alittle tlc to the guns now. Am lookin forward to my next match w/ that elusive 10 ring.......Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cold shot Posted June 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 UP DATED> Went to the range today with the 7x57...Just fire forming some brass..What sweet loads they were.: 130gr Lee casts pushed by 20grs of RX7 and kicked off with a Fed 215 primer. I swear the recoil was less than a 22-250 with a 60gr round.Only had 50rds loaded, have brass coming so will load 200rds. Next time the wife better bring the camera....Even with the right shoulder in a little pain stretching the arm, it was a GOOD day....Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
