Fun at the range today with my son!
Had a great afternoon down at the range with my son who doesn't get to shoot as often as he would like.
He had a blast with my HiPoint .45 carbine and I got to get the dust off of my sweet S&W M66 a classic made in 1976.
A wonderful day in December with some great 57 degree weather!
A couple nice groups out of the SW 66 with my 158 gr. "FBI" loads using 6.0 gr. of Power Pistol in a .38 Special +P case.
Later I shot some entry level .357 Mag loads using 125 gr. Xtreme plated bullets and 7 gr. Unique.

Thanks! My son had some catching up to do with his Glock 32,Sig P365 and his 1911.
With his work and keeping up with kids ages 8-20 he stays busy but we do try and have a great time when shooting!

Outstanding video, thanks for sharing. These are the memories that our kids take with them long after we are gone. Great Day at the Range !

Well could be the sun reflecting off some wet areas of the grass since we had some rain the day before and I had a tarp laid out closer up to the sand berm to catch the .45 brass.runnin n gunnin wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 11:56 amOutstanding video, thanks for sharing.

Roger that, I thought you may have had some of that legendary "Snow" we hear about.
