[dieselman]

Im sure we could of used one of the fords at the shoot. I think my chevy might of caught some rust off of a truck or two there.

My F250 doesnt appreciate that...

I only shot about 200 (maybe 300) rounds of .22. and some 9mm, then everyone elses ammo


Btw thanks IndyMonkey for letting me shoot your wolf, I enjoyed breaking in my ar with it.

HOW DARE YOU SHOOT A WOLF!!!!

 

[jclark]

Well...that and $12 worth of chain

I gotta find a good, cheap way to mount these things.

Also, we probably should advise against shooting directly at target holders

Braided steel cable will last a bit longer for hanging steel plates.

What knot would be suitable for braided steel cable?

Nothing as far as I can tell, Isn't that how all computers are supposed to look?

Lol!!! They make clamps that hold them together.Kinda looks like a muffler clamp.

I've got some of the same steel targets. The steel whire would work, but does present the added fun of clamping the free ends.

I use some very small chain (the smallest they sell at home depot). You can loop it through the two holes in the steel and have the tag ends opposite the target. I've just screwed a deck screw through those ends into a 2x4. That holds it very solidly, and allows for the swing.

So long as you don't shoot the chain links (liked was happening Saturday) it holds up quite nicesly

You can get cable clamps at ant decent hardware store.
I can get cable up to 1" thick. I think 3/8 would be thick enough.
I have a bunch of choker cables. They have loops at both ends that are reinforced with steel.
Next shoot I'll bring some if someone reminds me.

Maybe bungee cord would be more forgiving? I mean, the dynamics are right...right?

 

[paintball_addiction]

I managed to scavenge quite a bit of the .40 brass after the shooting stopped. I'm glad I made the choice to come to the shoot instead of working. Got to meet a lot of people, shoot new guns, got my GSG mag from IndyMonkey, and bought some AR500 steel targets.

Thanks again to .38 for setting this up, to Savage for the hot dogs, to everyone that let me try out their toys, and everyone else for making it a fun time.
