Anyone do any shooting in the Summer?

me and my buddies have a trap shooting team, and we compete weekly, other then that i shoot my assortment of high powered rifles, and pretty much spend my time sighting in my guns for deer hunting....

Referring to AR's and such? I've got a Bushmaster set up with a nice Trijicon ACOG. Blast to shoot, but like you said way to expensive. Costs too much to be just blasting all the time. Every once in a while let loose, but pistols seem to have me saving a bit. Choose my shots more wisely.

Trijicons are sweet. shoot with full auto thompson, max-11 and mac-10. 10 and 11 both have eotech's They sure burn up the ammo though. looking to get a saiga 12 ga. they make a 20 round drum for it. search for a video of it on youtube, very sweet. got to get it fast before they make it a destructive device.

You can never have too many. We are heading sometime this weekend, not sure which day. I will shoot you a PM when we decide. Hunter's Park is really nice. Two nice clays courses and a really nice bar. People are friendly to non-members, which is nice.
 
Heres the list:

L1A1 (FN-FAL variant) in 7.62X51 NATO

SKS in 7.62X39

Enfield-Ishapore also in 7.62X51 NATO (if need be, has good potential to reach out and touch someone)

Remington 870 12ga

Taurus Millenium Pro in 40 S&W
 
ooo guns! i too excersise my second amendment right! lol

my list:

Bushmaster M4 A3 .223

remington woodsmaster 740 30-06

para ordinance 12-45 mini 1911

remington 870 express 12 gauge

2 ruger 10/22's, one stainless with synthetic stock, the other blued with wood stock.

C&A wolf .50 cal muzzle loader

and various high powered pellet guns for pest control in my yard.

I love to shoot but with the prices of ammo now days it makes it hard, shooting clays with my shot gun or plinking with my 22's have become more common place because ammo is the cheapest for them.
 
Since becoming a dad, I haven't shot like I used to. Junoir will turn 5 in May and I did get him in the duck blind last fall. Lasted about 30 minutes ("daddy I'm cold") but we did bag a nice drake woody. He's pumped for turkey this spring and I found a mini sized mouth call that he has nearly mastered in less than a week. I'm having more fun watching him experience this stuff for the first time than I did with my old man.

Arsonal includes: Benelli Nova, Browning BPS (both 12 ga.), 10/22 mag. (syn. stock and fluted Green Mountain target barrel), H&R pardner 20 ga., 870 Express youth (mama's), BAR in .243. Rem 22-250, EA 9 mm (junk).

In the market for a new revolver but that purchase has been put on the back burner for now. I did stock up on ammo before inaugeration day.
 
no pistols allowed here in Canada.

I shoot clays 5-6 times a summer, in preparation for duck hunting.

I also have a cool little semi-auto .22 and I imported 15 round magazines from the US....its fun firing off 15 shots in 3 seconds...LOL

Browning Auto 5 Semi 12 GA
Browning .270 Lever (gold trigger)
Franchi 20GA double barrel (Side by Side)
I forget who makes my .22

I duck hunt, grouse hunt. every couple of years I even get out for a pheasant hunt. I should practice more, but there never seems to be enough time. One time I go out and can't miss, the next I can't hit the broad side of the barn. Pretty maddening! But I figured out that as long as it makes noise... I LIKE IT!!!! I've taken Jack out duck hunting since he was 2. He still talks about that first time in the blind!
 
I play around with Firearms also.
Pistols
Springfield XDm .40 (best dang pistol I've ever shot)
High Standard .22 semi auto (VERY old)

Rifles

Springfield 1903a1 .30-06 made in 1937 (dropped many deer with this one)
British Enfield Mark III .303 made in 1917
SKS 7.62x39 , Yugoslavian made
Marlin 70 .22lr (currently my "plinker", ammo is getting TOO spendy for the others)

And a Mossberg 12 gauge pump.........
