karlunity Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 practice is the key I guess. Since I got the .22 revolver, I have been shooting 100 to 150 rounds at a time at the pistol range. Can't do that with the other pistols as they won't allow reloads and his "range ammo" is 20 bucks a box. With the .22 I can shoot all day for 10 bucks. Anyway, now I can keep about half the rounds in the black at 25 meters. With my .22 rifle of course they are all in the black.. karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Let me guess, they're afraid reloads will blow up and cause a lawsuit? How do they know you are shooting reloads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlunity Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 When I first went there they checked the ammo...I could have gotten around that..bring one box of approved ammo and a few other boxes of reloads in my pack...but the last time I went the owner told the guy at the counter "he is ok, you don't have to check him". So now I cannot sneak any in it is a point of honor. I found an outdoor range that I will join in June...only problem is that it is about an hour away...but you can shoot BP and it goes to 200 meters for the rifles. karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Hess Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I would suspect the "safety" issue is really more a "profit" issue. Everyone has to earn a living, but I gotta live too. At least you can shoot 22 cheap all day. I actually think I shot a lot more when I couldn't just walk outside and do it, like now. Of course, ammo was a lot cheaper then.
