It might be 37 degrees, but it is a beautiful day.

I thought I would share…….

Is that blood on your towel on the bench? Hope you are OK!

A couple of us shot the 600 in Crosby today. A bit cold but not bad if you could find a spot out of the wind. Same bright sunshine.

I was out at my range this morning doing some load testing with the wind at my back, Brrr
The shooting bench is covered and after two, three rounders I, with my black jacket would
stand in the sun for a few minutes. Wasn't having a problem with over heating the barrel.

Jackie, are you guys too cheap to pave the firing line?

 

[bugman]

it is 17 degrees here and snowing. days like that at the range are over for me.

Butch, I know some Bit and Spur makers that would give somebody the stink-eye if they said something negative about their dirt shop floors.
Concrete wasn’t in God’s plan for their body to hold up in long run, LOL!

You may want to shoot a match there and then tell how you feel.

Never reached zero until about 8:30 this AM here in central MA.
Snow overnight changing to rain tomorrow so 3-4 inches of slush to clean up here on the farm.

Butch, the place has changed, as you can see by our new Burm that we call “Mount Tomball”.

gone are the 12” tall flags on the right side, and when it rains, it actually flows out and not into the loading area.

oh, and that pee gravel has been gone for sometime.

But the one thing that did not change is the difficult conditions. As hard as it might be to believe, I think all of our improvements could have possibly made things worse.

I left a Red Sharpie Pen in my range box. With the cap off.

Concrete bad for your horses too.

 

[FNSafari]

Butch, I do admit that it makes for a nice clean walking surface and very stable benches!

 

[jamesdmock]

I have enjoyed shooting at Tomball over the years, but the poles in the middle of every other bench is a real distraction. I wish they would have corrected that over the years, but evidently not.
