The UPS truck should be comin' tomorrow!!
This time it's not bringing me parts from Newegg. This time it's bringing me ammo!!! Only 340 rounds. 200 of .45 and 140 of .223. But it's enough to take some people shooting. Which is good, because I have a line starting. James and Tina want to go shooting and my co-worker Beth wants to go shooting. Got two other co-workers who want to go shooting as well, but they've already handled guns and are quite capable of going shooting on their own. People who are not likely to shoot on their own get priority.
So we've also got some .300 Win Mag, 7.62x39mm, 9mm, and .357 ammo, and of course .22LR. Likely we'll be shooting the .22 bolt action just so people can get used to the range and pointing things in a safe direction. Then we'll hit up the AR-15, get them used to a bigger rifle that still has very little kick to it. Then the SKS and then we'll see if anyone wants to tackle Winnie the Winchester. :)
Then pistols. My USPs .45 kick about the same as the Hi-Points in 9mm, but I think we'll start off with the USPs just because they're worlds more reliable. The Hi-Points will be good to show people what to do when a gun jams on you. And of course we'll see if anyone wants to fire the .357.
I did set aside 20 rounds of .223 just for me. I picked up some 75 grain rounds to see how they performed. Most .223 is either 55 grain or 62 grain. My AR-15 is a match grade rifle, so apparently it likes heavier stuff.
Anywho, that should be a fun day of shooting right there. The only problem is I'll probably be out of ammo by the time the day is done. :)
