    I can't view the pic with tapatalk or through Internet connection.
    I wouldn't call it a range per say but i have a place out in the back to go shoot with several target arrays and an impromptu 3gun course can be set out with ease.
    I am eyeballing a piece of wooded property to clear a hundred yard shooting trail through but it's gotta dry up first.

    I built one this last winter. Calling it a range is maybe a bit much, but I had a good deal of dirt moved by a neighbor who is in the business. Berm is only about 7' high, which is not as much as hoped for. So far I have 5 8" plates on a pipe, a couple of 10"x10" pieces of plate, and one "thing" with a couple of 4" and 6" plates on it. All materials have been donated or scap stuff. The steel is fine for 9mm/.45, but I learned not to shoot it with .357 if you don't want a dent!

    Heres my 800yd range. In this pic, its only 600. I have to move further back to get 800.


    I hate you with a burning fiery passion that you simply cannot fathom. In all seriousness though, that looks awesome man. What do you have setup as a backdrop?

    :rockon:

    Miles and Miles and Miles of Kisatche forest and hills. I shoot all the time, if some of you would like to swing up to Forest Hill, we could have a day of shooting. Send me a PM. Im offshore for a few more weeks, so itll have to wait till I get back, but we could still plan.

    I'm going to have to go with Austin on this one. Jealous just doesn't describe the emotion I feel when I look at your setup! Haha

    My brother has some property surrounded by crawfish ponds that we occasionally shoot on. Mainly skeet and pistols.
