Just now getting around to buying some more targets for my back yard. The last batch I got from Steelplinkers are fantastic metal targets. Just have to buy a few more from Ben and I should be set..:) I always need something new to shoot at. Here are some pics of the targets I have set up. Still have a couple that I need to put up and order some more..:) Never will have enough but I am working hard on it..:)
-
Gene Thats a fine group of targets you got there. There aint nothing like a back yard range, but I think you took it to a whole new level. How do decide which one to shoot at?? Skip
-
THAT'S AWESOME. I WOULD HATE TO BE A BIRD LANDING ON THAT BIRD HOUSE.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)
-
I think i need to make a trip across the mountain and visit wif Gene !!!! lol.That is a great setup Gene.
-
I'll bet the mowing job is a ball. Looks like a back yard arcade!! You just have to much fun Gene.
-
Party at Genes house! BYOAG!
-
Man I wish I had your back yard....droool
-
Dang Gene, Can I come over and play?
Charlie,
-
Now don't tell me you take the targets up when its time to mow the lawn!!

Just lay down in the prone position and start with the grass. Should save you some mowing time.

couple of small pvc stands holding cardboard/paper targets... As well as some .22 cal spinner type targets out, one at 17 yds and one down at 25 yds... For random range, I took a broken marine vhf antenna element and bent it to hold some 99 cent spoons from wally world... They are fun :)

My targets are at different ranges. From 25 yards out to 50 yards from where I shoot. Makes for quite a challenge for me. I put the paper targets at different ranges so I can see where my shots are placed when sighting in my guns.
-
A target rich environment for sure . See you Saturday Gene and we'll put them to good use . kirby
-
WOW Gene !!!!
What a Shooting Range, and Air Gunners Dream !!!!!
You shooters down South are sure lucky !!! You have a world class shooting range right in South Carolina !!!!
Keep up the GREAT work buddy !!!!!!
Envious Bill :-)
-
Yep.....definitely a target-rich environment.....I can only hope I have that kind of space and distance to shoot. Maybe time to move to some rural area......
-
nice set up Gene.....
-
Thanks guys, it is relaxing after a long day working to be able to sit up on my deck and just plink..:) I can really enjoy my retirment then..:)
-
I see metal nutters out there along with some other critter's :o great target range bro. 8)

I have a couple of brass bells out past the 50 yard line hanging in the trees. Also some colored foam balls are out there also at about 60 yards. Timmy shot holes in one of my brass bells with his .22 Marauder before he left the last time he was here. I could not believe he put holes in that brass bell at that distance..:) Not just one hole but one giant hole...:)
-
Gene,
When that new grandson out grows out of his baby toys, they make fun targets. It also gives grandma a excuse to buy new ones for him.
If you didn’t live so far away, I would help you out. After all, what is family for.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)
-
That's one heck of a range. My wife laughs at me for having "too much junk" and I don't have a 1/4 of what you got. That's awesome.
-
Well when your wife has to mow the yard then she can laugh...:) And I mean a push mower...:)
-
I still will be needing some target's with fur on em hehe. Ed
-
Brother Ed, shooting fur is not “target practice”. That is called grocery shopping or pest management. However, if the only thing you have to shoot at has fur or feathers on it, then that is called ecstasy (no pill needed).(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)
-
Brother Ed,,,, Pops gots lots of critters too!!:) See Ya soon. Pops,,, make sure Yer bbq grille is up & runnin!!:p And oh yea,,, I been lookin everywhere for a bell to replace the one I "killed":o 8) Timbo.
-
Neighbor kids?
-
Yup brother Timmy I already check out the hybrid map of his place and seen the layout of timber and foliage around him hehehe. Ed
-
No Neighbor Kids... Only one neighbor who is on the opposite side of the shoting area..:)
-
No gene... I meant as targets of opportunity ;-)
-
LOL Josh. At one time I wanted to accidently shoot the lady next door...:) Just kidding.
