Good deal. FWIW, most folks have better luck with brass-cased ammo. Was that Blazer brass?
Yeah, it was brass. I read on this lovely board that brass was the way to go.TxCajun said:Good deal. FWIW, most folks have better luck with brass-cased ammo. Was that Blazer brass?
Thanks! I've been shooting for quite awhile. As I said, I was impressed with how good the little guy shot.TxCajun said:That's some pretty impressive shooting, especially for this gun at those ranges. 8)
Haha! Yeah, these pictures were taken with a camera phone, so I didn't expect great quality. Thanks for the advice though.adamsesq said:Thanks for the very detailed report. And VERY nice shooting as others have said.
I can't offer any KT words of wisdom, but I can offer a small suggestion on your photography - that little "flower" on your digital camera is "macro" or "close up" mode. It will make focussing on those close ups a lot easier/better and give you some really decent pics to share.

Ah ha! Now I have yet to see a camera phone with a macro mode. They probably exist, but I have not seen them!HydraShok82 said:Haha! Yeah, these pictures were taken with a camera phone, so I didn't expect great quality. Thanks for the advice though.
My Treo has a camera with 1x and 2x capability....does that qualify as macro mode??adamsesq said:Ah ha! Now I have yet to see a camera phone with a macro mode. They probably exist, but I have not seen them!

No problem. I am going out to the range again next weekend, so I will post an update. Be safe.Nu_Agin_Shooter said:Congratulations on your trip Hydrashok... and welocme to the board.
I did have some trouble with my gun at first, but things are working out.
I almost bought my 3AT the first time I held one, (The thing is so tiny to carry so much punch!) but made myself lurke around in here a bit before buying.
All the chat I heard about kicking like a mule and tearing hands up...I really thought it would be a beast, but it does not bother me. The most I ever shot in one outing was about 100 rounds.
jeesh......I am rambling.....
Welcome aboard Hydrashok......and thanks for the detailed report
Thanks, and I don't mind at all. I am in Fairfield County/Suburban Southeast Columbus. I shoot at Deer creek, Ohio Valley, and Powder Room occasionally. How about you??Rubb said:Welcome HS82 from another Buckeye ;D
What part of Ohio and what range do you visit, if you don't mind me asking?
;D Central, Franklin shoot at the Powder Room most of the time and have been to Deer Creek, New Albany and the new Lauhorner in Sringfield.HydraShok82 said:Thanks, and I don't mind at all.

The powder room is alittle on the expensive side to me. Charging by the half hour. You should check out Ohio Valley if you haven't. $10 per person if you buy their ammo, $12 if you don't. Plus the place is only a few years old. I'm not sure about membership prices at either place though, because I go through phases of how often I shoot. Alot more in the warmer months.Rubb said:;D Central, Franklin shoot at the Powder Room most of the time and have been to Deer Creek, New Albany and the new Lauhorner in Sringfield.
Yeah, you move the targets electronically. IMO, its the best range for the price, that I know of.Rubb said:Here's a link, looks good.

I can't tell if you run the target out manually or mechanically though ?
Yeah thats not too bad. I like that they have an indoor long range rifle range. (I did hear something about them closing that awhile back though?)Rubb said:I just read the range rules and only jacketed ammo allowed, that leaves me and Dad high and dry with the .45 reloads :-/ bummer
The Powder Room is not too bad if your there for two hours or so,
$5.00 a half hour($6 non member )
per booth and two people per, Dad and I can get out for under 20 bucks most of the time and we can shoot un jacketed reloads and they only charge $1 for 10, B-2 targets.
