Backyard Range

[Tech0214]

Lets see some pictures of your back yard range if you have one. Be interesting to see all the neat and cool ideas.

I'm going to follow this one closely as I plan to put a range in by fall.

I only wish I could have my own backyard range! That would be sooo sweet!

I have a oak tree and a shooting mat for practice. During load development I drag out my shooting bench.

I have 95 yard range across the road for my home in an old gravel pit with 20' banks on all sides. Trouble is, it's under 4 feet of snow and more on the way. Maybe I'll see it in late April. Barlow

Any port in a storm...I keep a trail beat down to my 100 yard target...we have about 3' of packed snow . I keep it raked so I can walk on top and not have to follow my own footprints . The wind/sun and freezing rain turn it to ice, keeps me from having to use snow shoes...gets me through the winter . My bench is just out the back door so loads are easy to work on, and gives me a chance to warm up.

Hope you got that woodstove fired up dale, I'm getting cold just looking at that.

Thanks, full disclosure...I have to give my Wife credit for help with the trail . When the heavy stuff comes She shovels it and I do the fine work with the rake . She enjoys the exercise and letting the mind wander thinking of spring...I often say I am a lucky man.

I sure do,two of them going all the time . I sit 4 feet from one while at the loading bench . I get the coffee brewed early and enjoy the day going in and out to the benches . I have always enjoyed winter shooting,but my body does not cope so well at times these days. My wife gets me motivated when she lovingly says..." Get out there and shoot,you need to blow some stink off" . She is special like that...

Oh to have the acreage....

 

[Schandler]

Exactly 98yds . I have a portable table i can set on the deck and a bench under the deck made out of 2x10’s when i need to hit same hole. What’s funny is I’ve shot almost as many deer that come out and stand beside the target . Water softener dumps salt out just to left of the target stand . I can’t imagine living in the city and i hear fellas talk at work about driving to the range. You can’t see it but to the left of 100 targets is a huge mound of dirt that’s 200 and it has concrete tables on a concrete pad but have to haul all the stuff to the benches . Don’t use it much just too easy to step out back door.

I can only get 197 yards but am happy to have the room to put my rimfire range in. Try to run longrange rimfire matches thru the summer. Steel racks from 25 yards out thru 197 yards at every 12 1/2 yards. Have two for each distance to swap out or move around to keep it interesting and challenging.

100m Smallbore and RF Silo range. It gets used for load testing as well.

This is in the center of Libville, Kalifornia. Very protected 100 yards. Trex bench with 8 4x4 cemented posts.
