You have to sit out a "round" while on the short bus road trip to Greg's drinking party....er...ahh graduation. :thefinger: Though......I'll in noooooooo way endorse a buncha drunkards drinking while on said short bus. Nope.......won't do it......won't get behind it. Well......................................
unforgiven Posted November 28, 2013 Report Posted November 28, 2013 I'll miss the round cause I'm gonna be pissin to make room for more. <thumbsup>
Rsquared Posted November 28, 2013 Report Posted November 28, 2013 Damn.....there you go using logic on me.
Head Space Posted January 18, 2014 Report Posted January 18, 2014 Hello to all! I'm in the Hill Country (Bandera County), northwest of San Antonio. I do most of my shootin at The Bandera Gun Club. Outdoor covered shooting benches. Only goes out to 200 yds. Nice Folks. I would like to find a range that had at least 500 yds.
JGshooter Posted February 9, 2014 Report Posted February 9, 2014 babo, sorry for the very late response.. I now shoot at Best of the West in Liberty Hill, much better than Eagle Peak!
txbdyguard Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Hey Y'all I live in Round Rock but own property in Colorado County south of Frelsburg and have a full time range set up there but for formal shooting we have Eagle Peak in Leander (sister range to Garland) 100 & 200 but no fmj and we have Best of the West in Liberty Hill that goes to 1000.
HOTCOFFEE Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Howdy boyz......just found this Texas bunch. I logged in the intro section a few days ago. Hmmmm...looks like the post have been a little slow here. From Feb to July.....hope you boyz is still shootin'. Anyway, I hang my hat here is DeWitt county, 'bout 1/2 way 'tween Cuero and Goliad. Got 'bout thutty nine acres and can shoot out to 500 yds and I got a few silhouettes setup here and there.....I'm waitin' on a couple of Poppers from JC steel, oughta be here next week or so. I got plenty coyotes to plink away at most every nite and an occasional hawg wanders in to the feed tub but, I don't shoot 'em unless I got somebody wants one. My neighbor across the road has got hawgs everywhere and he furnishes the ammo to get rid of 'em.......cool !! Got deer too.....and the turkeys are startin' to come back after this long dry spell we've had. I never been to a shootin' range.....but I would like to make it out to the high desert, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona......to try my hand at longgggg range high angle steel targets. Have gun, will travel. HC

bear1962 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 Hi, all. I live in NE San Antonio and work in Seguin. I shoot at the Bracken Range pretty regularly, and I want to go check out the Bexar Community Range in Marion when I can. Hey, Grunt, the Wife and I shoot at Bracken as well.
unforgiven Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 I still have family in San Antonio,I use to work at the market downtown with my grandfather.
txchl Posted January 16, 2015 Report Posted January 16, 2015 I'm in Abilene, TX. I need to borrow a set of headspace go no-go gages for a 308? Will anyone help me with this problem. Hate to purchase a set for one build. Let me know. john day 4601vista grande Abilene, TX 79606
NTXshooter Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 If you are only doing one build, you might want to just take to a gunsmith. Mine only charges $35 -$50 to check headspace. If you can't borrow a set.
mrmackc Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) I haven't found much of a place to convert US dollars to noise here in Comanche County. We had a nice indoor pistol range but it went South with the economic boom (more of a fizzle) of the last 6 years. I was a member of the Pampa R&P club back in the 1970s and enjoyed their 500 yard range. About 1983 I got involved with the chasing the oil patch bust. I really need to sight in several scopes could use 200 yards. Anyone shoot at Brown County or Erath County? Edited January 23, 2015 by mrmackc

GRA Posted April 19, 2015 Report Posted April 19, 2015 For some of you in the Houston - Galveston area that may not be aware of this, here is the local outdoor range that I love to go to when I have the time: http://www.texas-city-tx.org/default.aspx?name=range.home This is one of the last (if not the last) municipal gun ranges left in Texas (which is why I patronize this range as much as possible). I've always enjoyed myself here and the fees are reasonable. City employees of the range are ranges officers and they are very good at their jobs and very assisting. The only drawback is their rule against using a holster on the pistol range.
