    Sorry Jeremy, just bitching. TSSR actually sounds good. It is just that poorly worded rules annoy the piss out of me. Like if a range were to have a rule of "no clips over 10 rounds"

    Thank you for your leg work.

    All center fire rifle rounds are pretty much armor piercing. I really wish the people who write the rules for places would actually know what they are talking about.
    This. Especially at an OUTDOOR rifle range. Its baffling

    What about target stands. They provide/have, or do we bring our own? Whether it be paper, steel, or "rubber". And I saw "NO MAGNUM ROUNDS" on pistol bay. Does that mean we take the .357 Mag. to the short rifle range?

    Grounds look a LOT smoother, so maybe, just maybe, I won't fall. Again.

    They do have target stands. They're put away for the construction. I don't have an answer about the magnum rounds.

    I'd go out there more often but it's just me and occasionally my wife so I always go to Shiny Top since it's only about 8 minutes away. I think between TSSR and Shiny Top, we have a few winners. As far as food goes, either place isn't going to have delivery but we can always make arrangements. The pizza place here in Salado doesn't go that far but we can still order ahead of time if that's the food of choice. Shiny Top also has BBQ pits we can use to cook as well.

    Make take on that. It's not about it being armor piercing. It's about having steel in the dirt.

    After a few months there might be 50# of copper and 75# of lead in the berm. It's easy to reclaim. Steel isnt as profitable and they don't want it mixed with the more expensive metals.

    Then that should be explained, as opposed to the Fudd statement "no armor piercing tactical boolit clips over 10 rounds"
