I know a lot of ranges won't allow lead shot, for environmental reasons, but I've never heard of one restricting the size of the shot.

Any of you guys have experience with add-on recoil pads?
50 rounds yesterday and I'm a little tender today... not a big deal at all, but for $30 or so, I figure why not. Especially when I'm already shopping for a sling and new bead sight. Seems that the custom fit ones are all pretty comparable, but the slip-on ones are cheaper. Can't really find much on fitment with the slip-on ones... and other than aesthetics, don't seem to be much difference between custom fit and slip-on. |
My Tromix saiga has an extra limbsaver on it. I don't think it makes a difference.

I got 4 M1A 20 rd springfield mags for $35 each today at a local dealer. The springfield version runs for $45 MSRP and the CMI ones run for $27 MSRP, seen them as low as $22. So I didn't make out too bad.
FINALLY GOT 308 ammo, I can actually shoot the damn gun finally. |

Like so: http://cdn2.bigcommerce.com/server29....1280.1280.jpg It does feel a little cramped, but I figured that with my limited rifle/shotgun experience it was just unfamiliarity. Maybe I'll get one of the slip on pads and see how it goes... should add a little length and some shock absorbtion. |
My local indoor range has the same restriction on bird-shot. I hadn't thought about it till now but, I wonder if there's a greater (real or perceived) danger of ricochet off the target hangers with the smaller shot?
On a side-note, I !finally! got to shoot my new Taurus PT845! It shoots nicely! Unfortunately, the sights are off and the damn set-screw has loctite on it and I can't get it loose! I'm probably going to take it to my local gunsmith since he should have a bit higher-quality allen wrenches and possibly a jeweler's torch to soften it a bit. All my torches are too big! |
