Not really a range report or maskmanship.....
1More of a peeve post. My wife hasn't gone to a range in awhile and she said let's go Sunday. I said sure why not. We get signed in and since it was her first time to this range she had to do a waiver. So we put on our ear muffs and head in. We had lane six. The minute I put my bags down two lanes over someone is shooting some huge hand cannon that was disturbing even with muffs on. It was so noisy that my wife had to go put on extra protection, but she was so distracted by then that she said she'd just watch. I suspect it was a fifty caliber or some equally noisy affair. They were mostly shooting at the five yard mark and it looked more like a shotgun spread. Neither of us was impressed. I told her we could go request another lane, but she didn't want to fuss. I started a few rounds at five and then mostly shot at a distance around seven and some at ten. When we got home my wife said at least you shot better than the youngsters a few lanes over. Next time we're going to go there right when it opens either eight or on Sunday at ten. At least she wasn't totally put off and said she's like to go with me again. Next time I hope we get there before the bigger the better crew shows up. Getting her to put on the extra ear plugs was an outing saver. She started to calm down right away. I might try it myself next time.
