Last tree line.
Those trunks are 18" or more in diameter.
Bobcat ain't gonna knock those down.

Anybody need firewood? You cut, you haul.

Mesquite tree's that big are old and rooted deep.

Sure wish I wasn't so busy right now Vaq. Would really like to get out there and help where I could.

I suspect my ability to hit anything out to 500 yards is marginal at best, but to me, trying is where the fun is. I'm just about more interested in the social aspect.

I've shot to 800 before but not with my own rifle. It's helped significantly for me to have someone who knew their equipment / adjustments and had a very nice optic.

Most of my shooting has been under 500yds as well. Same fundamentals but you add a layer of complexity for wind and the extreme bullet drops.

What is the cellular coverage like out there? Is it LTE per chance?

Hopefully none.

I didn't realize Abeline is only 2 1/2 hrs out. Obviously, this weekend is over already. We'd be willing to drive over and help out. Probably a payday weekend would be best. If you have tools, we have hands.

I get 3 or 4 bars on att.
can't vouch for Verizon or sprint.

Just thinking of cellular streaming from mobile device to mobile device as a way to set up feedback camera.

Great opportunity do every day gun range practice .

I didn't read through the whole thread but if it hasn't already been brought up, you might consider some RV or tent camping spots.

Well considering I just got a 308 bolt gun im interested in the occasional meet out there. I've got Best of the West nearby but always enjoy meetups.

There's something special about having enough time to think you missed before hearing the steel ring.

So very true. Especially if you can spot bullet flight. Even more fun with a spotter.

With practice and good form you can spot your impacts from about 300yds out.

First 600+ yds.

Vaquero that looks like heaven to me.... If ever you want of need help brush clearing for range time and I am able I would love this!!! Damn Houston drive times!

 

[Younggun]

Is it ready yet?

 

[orbitup]

Our young Airman said he would help out if you need him. He'll be out there in about 3 weeks. Of course he just had a baby so he might be a little busier than he's anticipating.

 

[Stumpnav]

Count me in!

I can get Bullseye Camera system for pretty decent price, too.

Holy crap that is cool, I want...actually I bet I can build an equivalent for less. I wonder how easy it is to source a emf transmitter (and receiver) with range of a mile.

The good thing about RV spots is you can hit them up for another 30-40 bucks for a night stay.
