Wash When did yall try going? That sucks yall didn't make it there, yeah that I35 traffic through Denton can be a bitch. Next time exit earlier at the Loop 288 exit and bypass Denton, spits you out north of that mess and I usually don't have traffic issues at that point.

washguy Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 thanks Chonkie...we will go that route ! Have you ever gone to fossil pointe ? Wash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chonkie Posted October 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Thanks for the welcome GRA, I am definitely enjoying the site and everyone's humor. Wash, i haven't been there. Looks nice from what's on the site, but two things they don't allow that knocks them off my list is no fmj and no rapid fire. All my range ammo right now is ZQI or Perfecta. I don't mag dump, but sometimes i like to shoot as fast as i can reaquire my target and that is usually faster than one second between shots. Those two things knocks a lot of places off my list.

So if this is the "Land of Misfits", I should fit in. @mrmackc, my buddy has a family hunting lease in Antelope, tx. with a great spot we set up for a shooting range. We've been going there for the past month or so since we got some ar500 steel gongs ... oh and found out about tannerite. We are probably going to cut down on range time there since it's getting closer to deer season. Although we still see plenty of big bucks around even with all the shooting and tannerite booms going on. If not going there, I like to go to Magnum in Sanger. Always looking for new places though if there are any out there that aren't so restrictive. I'm a pic whore, so here are some of our setup as of now, that's my bud in the pic. Setup where we are in the pic has us shooting most of our targets around 137 yards based on range finder. We can trek through light brush and a dried up creek if we want to get distances up to probably 500-600yds. We actually replaced the green table with a big wood electrical spool. I'm planning to collect material from jobsites to build a decent shaded shooting bay, but it's kind of low on the list of stuff to do. Where do you go shootin? Is Antelope up near Jacksboro?

mrmackc Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) I worked some oil wells in that area back around 1962. Now they have the wind chargers! Looks like a good place to shoot.
